USDA: Delivering Results for the American People
From 2009 to 2011, under the leadership of Secretary Tom Vilsack, USDA has produced impressive results for the American people.
USDA is working hard to strengthen the American agricultural economy, to revitalize rural communities, to conserve our natural resources, and to provide a safe, sufficient and nutritious food supply for the American people. Over these three years, USDA has supported farmers, ranchers and growers, provided assistance to over 50,000 small rural businesses to create and save 266,000 jobs, helped raise a healthier generation by promoting healthier food and lifestyles for tens of millions of American children, and worked to promote an economy that is built to last - especially in rural America.
