Department of Agriculture Flag
The Department of Agriculture, established in 1862 under President Abraham Lincoln, has grown from its humble beginnings to become a cornerstone of American prosperity and environmental stewardship. Its mission has expanded greatly over time to include conservation efforts, food safety, and rural economic development. We are so happy to support you with these Government agency flags!
The Department of Agriculture Flag Design
The Department of Agriculture flag is a great Agency flag that we love to offer in our growing portfolio of U.S. Department flags. At the heart of the flag lies the official seal of the USDA, featuring a plow, a bundle of wheat, and a cornucopia. The shield is supported by two sheaves of wheat, representing the agricultural community's unity and strength. The flag's background is green. The emblem's colors, gold and brown, stand for harvest and the earth. Finally, Encircling the emblem, the inscription "United States Department of Agriculture" and the year of its founding, 1862, is prominently displayed, reminding us of the USDA's enduring legacy.
