The SDA Program is administered throughout the state. However, 12 counties have been identified that have a very active agricultural community and a high concentration of minorities.

The targeted counties are Brunswick, Charles City, Greensville, Halifax, King and Queen, Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, Prince Edward, Southampton, Surry, Sussex and Cumberland.
