By Chuck Abbott, Successful Farming
A hog producer, Titan Swine, got the largest single payment during the first month of the USDA’s coronavirus relief program — $1.4 million — and it received two additional checks, totaling $1.1 million, on the same day, reported The Counter on Thursday. The nonprofit news organization said it found five farms that got single payments of significantly more than $750,000 and 13 instances in which multiple entities with the same business address received payments totaling more than $1 million.
