U SDA Needs Objective Criteria


For Awarding Special Disaster Payments




The Department of Agriculture recently
awarded special disaster payments to 83
counties in Texas, New Mexico, and
Oklahoma. Many counties designated to
receive special disaster payments suffered
severe crop losses. However, some desig-
nated counties sustained less crop loss
than nondesignated nearby counties and
counties in other parts of the country.

T le Department does not have criteria for
as uring that special disaster payments are
a Siarded in a consistent manner. GAO
re ommends that the Department establish
o ljective criteria to be used in awarding
secial disaster payments.
