USDA inspection is the federal standard. The USDA mark on the package is what lets a farm sell individual cuts, to the public and to businesses, in its own state and in others.
Some states run the same inspection with state staff under federal oversight (the Talmadge-Aiken programme). The meat carries the USDA mark too, so it is listed as USDA-inspected here.
Inspection is about the plant and the animal at slaughter. It is not a review of the processor's skill or service.

USDA-inspected: a federal inspector is on site, so the meat can be sold by the cut, in this state and across state lines.
Also does custom-exempt work: meat from animals processed under a custom exemption is for the animal's owners only and can't be resold. Buyers own their share of the animal before slaughter.
