who incidently is not listed in Iowa, but Virginia. It has been a while so I will have to figure it out.

start here: http://farm.ewg.org/
This is the farm subsidy database (this is the environmental working group db.)

Then pick a state - this brings you to a secondary selection screen
- the very last entry ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN allows for search by recipient - click on this

This will get you where you want - enter the name of the owner or business you want and hit the search button

I put in Charles Grassley of Virginia (senator Grassley) and find he has taken in @ $350,000 in subsidies.
(his son has taken in a million.
The db is @ a year or 2 in arears because it simply takes some time to compile data.

I am curious what you find
