Mission Statement –
The U.S. Department of Agriculture provides leadership on food, agriculture, natural resources, rural development, nutrition, and related issues based on public policy, the best available science, and effective management.
We have a vision to provide economic opportunity through innovation, helping rural America to thrive; to promote agriculture production that better nourishes Americans while also helping feed others throughout the world; and to preserve our Nation’s natural resources through conservation, restored forests, improved watersheds, and healthy private working lands.
Discussion –
The U.S. Department of Agriculture does important work, but it is also the poster child for work that would be better carried out by the States themselves. While all States have some level of agriculture and certainly have natural resources, there is significant variation from State to State. People in Washington, D.C. should not be deciding what is ‘best’ for rural America to thrive. And what is best for rural New York State may not be best for rural Arkansas.
One exception is the U.S. Forest Service, which is certainly a Federal responsibility as it governs and manages Federal lands. However, this agency should be part of, and we propose moving it to, the Department of the Interior.
Another is food inspection and standardization. To the extent that food moves in inter-state commerce, these are Federal responsibilities, so these duties should be moved to the Department of Interstate Commerce.
USDA’s SNAP Program is another example of the Federal Government acting as a middle-man but providing no real benefit. The Federal Government taxes the people in order to provide money to the States to provide an important benefit. But the States are perfectly capable of collecting and distributing these funds themselves. And doing so would provide the added benefit of spending the money in the ways best suited for each respective State and its citizens.
