Community Development

When the Farm Bill became law in early 1996, our name changed to USDA Rural Development. We were known as Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) for more than 60 years and then became Rural Economic and Community Development (RECD) for a short time. With the new name came a new mission area focusing on Rural Development programs, providing financial and technical assistance to improve the quality of life in rural America. Our programs consist of a variety of loan, loan guarantee, and grant programs, plus technical assistance in the areas of business and industry, cooperative development, rural housing, community facilities, water and waste disposal, electrification and telecommunications, including distance learning and telemedicine.

The Maryville Local Office administers agency programs for the counties of Atchison, Gentry, Holt, Nodaway, and Worth.
