1Opinion of the Court
SKOPIL, Circuit Judge:
The primary issue on appeal is whether there is an implied private right of action to enforce the Agricultural Credit Act of 1987 (“1987 Act”), 12 U.S.C. §§ 2001-2279aa-14. The district court held that the 1987 Act creates such an action and found that the Federal Land Bank (“FLB”) and Willamette Production Credit Association (“WPCA”) violated the statute. Harper v. Federal Land Bank of Spokane, 692 F.Supp. 1244, 1252-53 (D.Or.1988). We hold there is no implied private right of action for the 1987 Act. We reverse.
