Sorry to rain on the subsidy parade, but ranchers in those parts do not receive yearly subsidies like farmers. They only get compensation for major disasters like the drought of 2012, which is pretty much the only time in the last few decades on record the county got agricultural subsidies. Grant county's subsidies since 1995 account for less than 0.0% of Nebraskas total subsidies. This is all public information.....
