1Opinion of the Court
DAVIS, Circuit Judge.
The Smithsons, who had made loan and security agreements with the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) (an agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture), brought suit in the United States Claims Court for alleged breach of those agreements. The Government moved for summary judgment primarily on the ground that the undisputed and indisputable facts showed that no such breach had occurred. The Claims Court (Nettesheim, J.) granted the Government’s motion and dismissed the complaint (reported as Nutt v. United States, 12 Cl.Ct. 345 (1987)). The Smith-sons appeal. We affirm.
