Ranches In New Mexico

Is there any way to find out how much any one farm or ranch received in Govt subsidies?

Since it’s our tax dollars, isn’t there any means of finding out how much of our tax dollars are going to certain farms and ranches? I want to know how much subsidy money went to a certain cattle ranch here in New Mexico. Since we’re in an official drought, I know they receive extra for feed etc. Thanx

The Environmental Working Group has a database of farm subsidies across the United States.

In 2002 when they first released the database, their database received a lot of attention when well known celebrities and moneyed individuals apparently received farm subsidies, such as basketball star Scottie Pippen of Portland Trail Blazers (received more than $100,000 in government subsidies on his Arkansas farm), Sam Donaldson, and David Rockefeller, a former chairman of Chase Manhattan Bank and grandson of oil magnate John D. Rockefeller, Jr.
