Farm Service Agency: Characteristics of Small County Offices (Letter
Report, 05/28/1999, GAO/RCED-99-162).
Historically, the Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Farm Service Agency
has provided personalized service to farmers through thousands of field
offices scattered across the country. These county offices run various
commodity, loan, conservation, and emergency disaster assistance
programs. In 1994, USDA was required to combine its field offices and
reduce personnel and duplicative overhead expenses. Since then, the Farm
Service Agency has closed more than 370 county offices and cut its
county office staff by about 28 percent. These reductions were achieved
primarily by closing and consolidating smaller county offices and by
reducing staff at larger county offices. This report provides
information on (1) the number of Farm Service Agency county offices with
three or fewer permanent full-time workers; (2) the characteristics of
these offices, including their proximity to another county office, their
workload, the level of program benefits delivered, the relative
contribution of farming to total county income, and the number of farms
and farmland acres in the counties served by these offices; and (3) the
ways in which varying the criteria associated with these characteristics
can affect the number of county offices that are candidates for closure
and consolidation.

The Honorable John R. Kasich
Chairman, Committee on the Budget
House of Representatives
Dear Mr. Chairman:
The Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture
Reorganization Act of 1994 (P.L. 103-354, Oct. 13, 1994), also
known as the Reorganization Act of 1994, directed the Secretary of
Agriculture to combine the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA)
field offices and to reduce personnel and duplicative overhead
expenses, where practicable and to the extent consistent with
efficient, effective, and improved service. Historically, USDA has
provided personalized assistance to farmers through thousands of
offices located in the nation's agricultural counties. The
Department's Farm Service Agency (FSA) has county offices that
administer a variety of commodity, loan, conservation, and emergency
disaster assistance programs. Since December 1994, FSA has closed
over 370 county offices and reduced its county office staff by about
28 percent. These reductions were achieved primarily by closing and
consolidating smaller county offices and reducing the staff at larger
county offices.
You asked us to provide information on (1) the number of FSA county
offices with three or fewer permanent full-time employees (hereafter
referred to as small county offices); (2) the characteristics of
these offices, including their proximity to another county office,
their workload, the level of FSA program benefits delivered, the
relative contribution of farming to total county income, and the
number of farms and farmland acres in the counties served by these
offices; and (3) the ways in which varying the criteria associated
with these characteristics can affect the number of county offices
that are candidates for closure and consolidation.
RESULTS IN BRIEF
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :1
As of November 1998, 673 of the nearly 2,400 Farm Service Agency
county offices, or almost 28 percent, had three or fewer permanent
full-time employees. Most small offices, about 58 percent, had three
employees, and the remaining small offices had two or fewer
employees. About 28 percent of these small offices serve two or more
counties. Small county offices are located in every state except
Rhode Island. The number of small offices in each state varies
greatly, ranging from one to 88. Additionally, the number of small
offices as a percentage of total county offices in each state varies
greatly, ranging from about 2 percent in Iowa and South Dakota to 100
percent in Alaska.
About 86 percent of these small offices are located within an
estimated 50-mile drive of another county office; about 43 percent
are within 25 miles of another office. On average, employees in
small offices spent a higher percentage of their time on
administrative duties (as opposed to program delivery duties) than
their counterparts in larger offices in fiscal year 1997: 46 percent
and 32 percent, respectively. Regarding program benefits, small
offices provided benefits to an average of 296 farmers in 1997,
compared with an average of 848 for larger offices. For 1997, the
dollar value of these benefits averaged about $1 million in small
offices and about $4 million in larger offices. On average, farming
accounted for about 1.3 percent of total income for the counties
served by small offices in 1995-96; this average was about 3.7
percent for counties served by larger offices. In addition, small
offices served areas (one or more counties) containing, on average,
about 720 farms and 367,000 farmland acres in 1997; in contrast,
larger offices served areas with, on average, about 836 farms and
402,000 farmland acres.
The number of Farm Service Agency county offices that are candidates
for closure and consolidation varies, depending on which
characteristics are considered and the criteria, or thresholds, set
for these characteristics. For example, 45 of the 673 small offices
met all of the following thresholds for three significant
characteristics--they were located within 25 miles (estimated driving
distance) of another county office, spent at least 50 percent of
their time on administrative duties, and distributed financial
benefits to fewer than 350 farmers. By changing the threshold for
one of the three characteristics, the number of offices with
potential for closure and consolidation will change. For example, by
increasing the proximity threshold from 25 to 50 miles, 140 offices
show potential for closure and consolidation. By decreasing the time
spent on administrative duties from at least 50 percent to at least
40 percent, 110 offices show potential for closure and consolidation.
By increasing the number of farmers who receive Farm Service Agency
financial benefits from fewer than 350 to fewer than 500, 49 offices
show potential for closure and consolidation. However, before
closing and consolidating any small office, other factors need to be
considered, including whether the office serves a sizeable population
of minority, socially disadvantaged, or limited-resource farmers.
BACKGROUND
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :2
USDA has delivered farm program assistance through county offices
since 1933. At that time, to serve more than 6 million farmers, the
Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (FSA's
predecessor) had a county office in most of the agricultural counties
in the United States. Over the past 65 years, the number of farmers
in the United States has declined to about 1.9 million, and farming
activity is increasingly concentrated in certain regions of the
country. Despite these changes in the demographics of U.S.
agriculture, USDA has, until recently, been slow to change the field
structure of its county offices.
In response to the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 and
the Vice-President's National Performance Review, the Secretary of
Agriculture initiated a departmental reorganization to refocus and
simplify the Department's headquarters structure, improve
accountability and service to customers, reform the Department's
field structure, and reduce costs. Several components of the
Secretary's reorganization required enabling legislation, which the
Congress provided in the Reorganization Act of 1994.
Since the passage of that act, FSA has closed and consolidated over
370 county offices, or almost 14 percent of the 2,773 offices
operating at the end of 1994.\1 In closing these offices, FSA
transferred files, equipment, and staff, as appropriate, to another
of its county offices so that farmers in the affected counties would
continue to be supported. However, these farmers must now drive to
an FSA office in another county for assistance. Although this may
create some inconvenience for these farmers, FSA officials noted that
other means of doing business make it increasingly unnecessary for
farmers to visit county offices in person to apply for farm program
assistance. For example, program information and application forms
are available to farmers by mail, facsimile, or via the Internet.
Although the agency has already closed and consolidated a number of
its county offices, FSA officials said that there is further
potential to streamline its county office structure. An FSA task
force composed of FSA state executive directors is currently studying
this issue. In addition, while testifying before the House Committee
on Agriculture in March 1999, the Secretary of Agriculture indicated
that USDA's field structure needed more streamlining, particularly in
closing and consolidating small offices.
In addition to the streamlining authority provided to the Secretary
in the Reorganization Act of 1994, more recent legislation offers the
potential to reduce FSA county offices' workload. Specifically, the
1996 farm bill--the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of
1996 (P.L. 104-127, Apr. 4, 1996)--fundamentally changed the
federal government's role in supporting agriculture by eliminating or
reducing the scope of several farm assistance programs. For example,
under the 1996 act, annual calculations of acreage devoted to
agriculture and associated payments to farmers were discontinued and
replaced by 7-year production flexibility contracts that provide
annual payments to farmers through 2002. USDA and the Office of
Management and Budget projected that workload and staffing in county
offices would decline because of these changes; for its part, the
Office of Management and Budget proposed reducing FSA's county office
staff by more than 50 percent by 2002. However, the impact of the
1996 act on FSA county offices' workload is difficult to determine,
largely because of an increase in workload in many county offices
that are assisting farmers in areas hit hard by sharply lower
commodity prices or severe weather problems in 1998.
Over the past 2 years, we have issued several reports addressing
various aspects of USDA's reorganization, including the Department's
progress in addressing the specific goals set forth in the
Reorganization Act of 1994. (See Related GAO Products.)
--------------------
\1 In addition to FSA, several other USDA agencies have been
streamlining their field structures in response to the authority
provided by the Reorganization Act of 1994. These agencies include
the Natural Resources Conservation Service and the agencies in the
Rural Development mission area.
APPROXIMATELY ONE-FOURTH OF
FSA'S COUNTY OFFICES HAVE THREE
OR FEWER EMPLOYEES
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :3
As of November 1998, about 28 percent, or 673, of the nearly 2,400
FSA county offices across the United States had three or fewer
permanent full-time employees. In addition to these employees, these
offices may use part-time or seasonal employees when required by
workload exigencies. These small county offices were located in
every state except Rhode Island, with the number of small offices
varying by state, ranging from one each in Delaware and South Dakota
to 88 in Texas. In one state--Alaska--all of the FSA county offices
had three or fewer employees. Nationwide, most small offices served
one county; however, about 28 percent of these offices served one to
five neighboring counties in addition to the county in which they are
located. Appendix I lists the number of small FSA county offices and
the total number of FSA county offices in each state.
Figure 1 depicts small FSA county offices having three, two, one, or
no permanent full-time employees as a percentage of the total number
of small county offices. Figure 2 illustrates the locations of small
FSA county offices in the 48 contiguous states.

CHARACTERISTICS OF SMALL FSA
COUNTY OFFICES
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :4
Most small FSA county offices are in relatively close proximity to
another county office--about 86 percent are within a 50-mile drive of
another office. Compared with employees in larger FSA county offices
(offices with four or more permanent full-time employees), small
county office employees generally spent a greater percentage of their
time on administrative duties than on program delivery in fiscal year
1997. Small offices also provided financial benefits to fewer
farmers, on average, than their larger counterparts that year.
Generally speaking, small offices served counties that do not depend
on farming income for a substantial portion of total county income,
with farming income usually amounting to less than 2 percent of the
total. In addition, small county offices served counties containing
an average of about 720 farms and 367,000 farmland acres in 1997,
which was lower than the average for their larger counterparts.
Appendix II provides detailed information on these characteristics
for each of the 673 small FSA county offices.
PROXIMITY TO ANOTHER FSA
COUNTY OFFICE
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :4.1
About 86 percent of small FSA county offices are within an estimated
50-mile drive of another FSA county office within the same state.
The estimated driving distance between offices varied from
approximately 6 miles between two offices in New York to
approximately 280 miles between two offices in Alaska.
According to FSA officials, reasonable access to a county office for
farmers should be a key consideration in deciding whether to close a
county office and transfer its workload to another county office.
Specifically, these officials said that farmers in a county losing
its FSA office should not be unduly inconvenienced in terms of how
far they may have to drive to conduct business in another FSA county
office. For example, in closing over 370 county offices since 1994,
FSA generally used a threshold of 25 miles (driving distance) as a
gauge of reasonable access. Applying this criterion to small FSA
county offices, we found that about 43 percent, or 287, of these
offices are within a 25-mile drive of another county office in the
same state. Table I provides additional information on the
distribution of small FSA county offices according to selected
driving distance criteria.

location and mapping software--Geographic Information Systems and

Some FSA officials have indicated that it may be possible to
consolidate FSA offices across state lines, although FSA did not use
this option in the county office closures and consolidations that
have occurred since 1994. These officials noted, however, that
issues related to FSA's field office structure, including the
supervisory relationship of state offices to county offices and the
control of FSA staff resources within a state, would have to be
considered. Regarding possible interstate consolidations, our
analysis found 73 cases in which the closest FSA county office to a
small county office was across a state line. See appendix III for a
listing of these offices.
COUNTY OFFICE WORKLOAD
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :4.2
Employees in small FSA county offices spent, on average, a higher
percent of their time performing administrative duties instead of
program delivery duties when compared with their counterparts in
larger county offices during fiscal year 1997. Specifically,
employees in small offices spent, on average, about 46 percent of
their time performing such administrative tasks as reading mail,
maintaining files, processing payrolls, and updating collection and
disbursement registers.\2 In contrast, employees in larger county
offices spent, on average, about 32 percent of their time on these
duties.
--------------------
\2 Workload data were not available for 51 small offices because FSA
combined these data with data from another office. In addition,
workload data were not available for seven small offices located in
either Alaska or Hawaii because FSA does not collect workload data
for these states.
NUMBER OF FARMERS WHO
RECEIVED FSA FINANCIAL
BENEFITS AND THE AMOUNT OF
THESE BENEFITS
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :4.3
On average, small FSA county offices provided the financial benefits
of farm programs to fewer farmers than did larger county offices, and
the dollar value of the benefits paid by small offices was also less.
Specifically, the average number of farmers served by small offices
in 1997 was 296, compared with an average of 848 farmers for larger
offices. Regarding the dollar value of these benefits, the average
amount of benefits paid by small offices was about $1 million, while
the average amount for larger offices was about $4 million.
Table 2 provides information on the distribution of small offices
providing benefits to various numbers of farmers in 1997. Table 3
provides information on the distribution of these offices according
to various levels of financial benefits that they provided in 1997.

<$5,000,000 648 (96%)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Source: GAO's analysis of FSA's data.
Nationwide, small FSA county offices provided financial benefits
under the farm programs to about 12 percent of all farmers who
received these benefits in 1997or about 200,000 of about 1.6 million
farmers who received benefits. In terms of their dollar value, these
benefits accounted for about 9.8 percent (approximately $733.7
million) of the about $7.5 billion in benefits distributed that year.
FARMING'S CONTRIBUTION TO
TOTAL COUNTY INCOME
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :4.4
On average, farming's contribution to total county income was small
in the counties served by small FSA county offices. Specifically,
farm income averaged about 1.3 percent of total income in these
counties in calendar years 1995 and 1996, the years with the most
current data available; this average was 3.7 percent for the counties
served by larger offices. However, in a few cases, small FSA county
offices served counties in which farm income contributed
significantly to total county income. For instance, farm income
accounted for 20 percent or more of total county income in 11 of the
counties served by small FSA county offices. In contrast, USDA's
Economic Research Service has reported that 556 counties in the
United States derive 20 percent of more of their total income from
farming activities.\3
Although the percent of total county income represented by farm
income was low in most counties served by small FSA county offices,
the dollar value of farming activity in some of these counties may
have been significant. For example, although farm income represented
only about 1 percent of the total income in one Florida county served
by a small office, the dollar value of this farm income was about $79
million. In other cases, although the percentage of total income
represented by farm income was relatively high, the dollar value of
this agricultural activity was relatively small. For example,
although farm income accounted for about 36 percent of the total
income in one Texas county served by a small office, the dollar value
of this farm income was about $40 million.

---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :4.5
On average, small FSA county offices served areas (one or more
counties) with about 720 farms and about 367,000 farmland acres. In
contrast, larger county offices served areas that had, on average,
about 836 farms and 402,000 farmland acres. The number of farms in
areas served by small FSA county offices ranged from 67 for a North
Carolina county office to over 4,300 farms for an Oregon county
office. The number of farmland acres ranged from almost 16,000 for a
Kentucky county office to almost 8 million for an Arizona county
office.\4

offices according to the number of farms located in the counties
served by these offices.

THE NUMBER OF SMALL FSA COUNTY
OFFICES THAT ARE CANDIDATES FOR
CLOSURE AND CONSOLIDATION
VARIES DEPENDING ON THE
CHARACTERISTICS AND THRESHOLDS
CONSIDERED
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :5
The number of small FSA county offices that are candidates for
closure and consolidation will vary depending on which
characteristics are considered and the criteria or thresholds set for
these characteristics. For example, 45 of the 673 offices met all of
the following thresholds for three significant characteristicsthey
were located within an estimated 25-mile drive of another county
office, spent at least 50 percent of their time on administrative
duties in fiscal year 1997, and distributed the financial benefits of
farm programs to fewer than 350 farmers in calendar year
1997.\5 However, by changing the initial threshold for one or more of
these characteristics, the number of offices (and their identity)
with potential for closure and consolidation will change. Before
closing and consolidating any small office, other factors need to be
considered, including whether the office serves a sizeable population
of minority, socially disadvantaged, or limited-resource farmers.
--------------------
\5 Because 58 small offices did not report workload data, we are
unable to determine whether some of these offices should be included
in the totals for any of the combinations of characteristics.
ALTERING THRESHOLDS CHANGES
THE LIST OF OFFICES WITH
POTENTIAL FOR CLOSURE AND
CONSOLIDATION
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :5.1
As discussed, altering the thresholds for characteristics such as
proximity, workload, and benefits changes the number of offices with
potential for closure and consolidation. These thresholds can be
altered either one at a time (keeping the thresholds for the other
two characteristics constant) or in unison. For illustrative
purposes, we discuss several possible combinations below and the
effects of these alternatives on the number of offices with potential
for closure and consolidation. Other combinations, including other
combinations of characteristics, are also possible.
-- Change in Threshold for Proximity: The number of small offices
with potential for closure and consolidation increases as the
threshold for geographic proximity to the next closest office is
increased from 25 to 50 miles. Specifically, 140 small offices
are within 50 miles of another office and in 1997 spent at least
50 percent of their time on administrative duties and provided
benefits to fewer than 350 farmers.
-- Change in Threshold for Percent of Workload Time Spent on
Administrative Duties: The number of small offices with
potential for closure and consolidation increases as the
threshold for the percent of time spent on administrative duties
is decreased to at least 40 percent. Specifically, 110 small
offices are within 25 miles of another county office and in 1997
spent at least 40 percent of their time on administrative duties
and served fewer than 350 farmers.
-- Change in the Threshold for Number of Farmers Who Received
Program Benefits: The number of small offices with potential
for closure and consolidation increases as the threshold for the
number of farmers who received program benefits is increased
from fewer than 350 to fewer than 500. Specifically, 49 small
offices are within 25 miles of another county office and in 1997
spent at least 50 percent of their time on administrative duties
and provided benefits to fewer than 500 farmers.
-- Changes to All Three Thresholds: The number of small offices
with potential for closure and consolidation increases when all
three thresholds are changed in the manner discussed above.
Specifically, 344 small offices meet the expanded thresholds for
these characteristics--they are within 50 miles of another
county office and in 1997 spent at least 40 percent of their
time on administrative duties and provided benefits to fewer
than 500 farmers.
OTHER FACTORS MAY MITIGATE
AGAINST CLOSING AND
CONSOLIDATING A COUNTY
OFFICE
---------------------------------------------------------- Letter :5.2
For each of these small county offices, mitigating factors need to be
considered when determining the potential for office closure and
consolidation. These factors may include whether a county office
serves a sizeable population of minority, socially disadvantaged, or
limited-resource farmers; provides a significant degree of
nonfinancial benefits, such as technical assistance, to local farmers
and other USDA agencies; or is collocated with county offices of the
Natural Resources Conservation Service and/or Rural Development
agencies in order to provide a single location where farmers can
obtain assistance from these agencies.
AGENCY COMMENTS
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :6
We provided a draft of this report to USDA for its review and
comment. We met with officials from USDA's Farm Service Agency and
National Agricultural Statistics Service, including the Farm Service
Agency's Deputy Administrator for Management and Executive Director
for State Operations. USDA generally agreed with the report. With
respect to sharp increases in workload at some Farm Service Agency
county offices during 1998 and 1999, USDA noted, and we agree, that
this short-term surge in workload represents nonrecurring activity
that should not be the basis for long-term management decisions
regarding county office infrastructure.
USDA provided a number of technical changes and clarifications to the
report, which we incorporated as appropriate.
SCOPE AND METHODOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :7
To determine which FSA county offices have three or fewer permanent
full-time employees, we obtained FSA data on staffing levels for all
FSA county offices as of November 1998, the most recent year for
which data were available. These data included employees responsible
for farm credit programs as well as employees responsible for farm
support programs. We then compared these data with information we
obtained from other FSA data sources. In doing so, we identified
several additional small offices that FSA concurred should be
included in our analysis.
To determine the geographic proximity of small offices to other
county offices, we obtained FSA's national database of its county
offices. Using the county office zip codes contained in this
database, we calculated straight-line distances between small
offices and other nearby offices (usually three), including those in
another state where appropriate, using Geographic Information Systems
software. Having identified the closest offices to each small county
office, we then calculated estimated driving distances using
MapQuest.com, Inc. software. This software maps the fastest route
between two locations (some local roads, such as rural routes, may
not be captured by this software). In each case, we selected the
office with the shortest driving distance as the nearest office.
It is possible that other mapping software could give slightly
different results.
To obtain information on county office workload, we reviewed FSA
county office workload reports for fiscal year 1997. To determine
the time spent by county office employees on administrative duties,
we subtracted their time charges for program delivery activities from
total workload charges. In doing this analysis, we noted that
workload data were not available for 51 of the 673 small offices
because FSA combined these data with data from another county office.
In addition, workload data were not available for seven small offices
located in either Alaska or Hawaii because FSA does not collect
workload data for these states. To determine the level of FSA
program benefits provided by county offices, including the number of
farmers who received these benefits, we used relevant data from FSA's
producer payment reporting system for calendar year 1997. This
system includes data on all farm support program payments that are
distributed through FSA county offices.
To determine agriculture's contribution to a county's total income,
we used data compiled by the Department of Commerce's Bureau of
Economic Analysis for calendar years 1995 and 1996, the most recent
data available. We used the average of these 2 years in performing
our analysis because the agricultural income reported for a few
counties in 1996 was a negative number. To obtain information on the
number of farms and farmland acres in counties, we used data from the
National Agricultural Statistics Service's Census of Agriculture for
1997. Although the Service estimates that about 13.7 percent of the
farms in the United States are not captured by the census, the census
remains the most comprehensive database of statistics on U.S. farms.
Regarding county office characteristics, we strove to keep the
timeframes of the various data we used as consistent as possible.
For example, since the most recent data available on agriculture's
contribution to county income and on the number of farms and farmland
acres in counties was from 1996 and 1997, respectively, we used 1997
data for county office workload and farm program benefits (although
1998 data were available for each). In addition, concerning workload
and benefits, we considered 1997 to be the most normal, or typical,
year for these characteristics during 1996 through 1998, the 3 most
recent years for which data were available for each. Specifically,
1996 was a transition year as the farm bill phased out some farm
programs while introducing others. As to 1998, some county offices
experienced dramatic short-term increases in workload that were
associated with assisting farmers hurt by sharply lower prices for
some commodities and/or severe weather problems experienced that
year.
We conducted our work from October 1998 through May 1999 in
accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards. We
did not independently verify the accuracy of the data we collected
from outside sources. However, we obtained information from agency
officials or documents on the measures taken to ensure the accuracy
and completeness of these data. As appropriate, we also noted any
limitations to these data.

profit and does not include the value of agricultural products sold
from inventory.
