The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced a new online tool showing its rural investments, overall and for each state, going back to 2012. USDA’s Rural Development division offers a wide range of loans, grants, and loan guarantees (many in our Ongoing Opportunities section, below) that provide essential services, help create jobs and support economic development. With the Rural Data Gateway, USDA shows where and how Rural Development has supported local and regional economies in the last 11 years through 69 programs.
