Description
The Secretary of Agriculture (Secretary) is authorized under the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act (CFRDA), 7 U.S.C. §§ 1921-1996, to make loans to farmers who are "unable to obtain sufficient credit elsewhere to finance [their] actual needs at reasonable rates and terms." 7 U.S.C. § 1983(a). The recipients of CFRDA loans are personally liable for the obligation and must provide such security as the Secretary may require. 7 U.S.C. §§ 1927(c), 1946(a)(1), and 1964(d). This appeal represents significant questions regarding the extent to which the Secretary must implement 7 U.S.C. § 1981a, the CFRDA's loan moratorium provision. The district court adopted the position that the Secretary is under no obligation to implement § 1981a. We reverse.
