Farming itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov totaled $787,567 in the 2012 election cycle, across 1,084 receipts from 434 donors. The same employer/industry grouping indexes $14,879,078 across all harvested cycles in this extract. 2012 accounts for 5.3% of that grouping total. A cycle slice is not the grouping, and the grouping is not a PAC.

Key figures

  • Farming in 2012: $787,567 on 1,084 receipts from 434 donors.
  • Farming all-cycle grouping in this extract: $14,879,078.
  • 2012 is 5.3% of that grouping total β€” a year cut, not the parent.
  • Employer labels are filer-entered. Cycle dollars are not federal awards.

Why Farming and 2012 share a page

This page exists because two FEC dimensions meet: employer/industry grouping Farming and even-year election cycle 2012. $787,567 is the intersection. $14,879,078 is the grouping’s harvested all-cycle total before the year filter. 1,084 is the 2012 line count. The 2012 donor count is 434 donors. LobbyVault does not convert those integers into a motive, a lobbying total, or a USAspending award.

Open the Farming 2012 cycle hub for the live overlay of this cut, the Farming industry hub for the parent grouping, the 2012 election-cycle index for every industry in that year, and All FEC ties for sibling joins. Quote $787,567 when the sentence is about 2012. Quote $14,879,078 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.

The 2012 slice for Farming

In 2012, receipts tagged Farming sum to $787,567 on 1,084 itemized lines from 434 donors. About $727 per receipt is $787,567 divided by 1,084. About $1,815 per harvested donor is $787,567 divided by 434. FEC even-year cycles run January 1 of the odd year through December 31 of the even year; 2012 names that two-year window, not a single November night.

Farming is an occupation or industry word, not USDA farm-count and not a commodity checkoff. Four hundred thirty-four donors and 1,084 receipts produced $787,567 in 2012, a broad presidential-year slice of a $14,879,078 grouping. Farmer, Agriculture, and named-grower employers are other keys. This page does not add them.
