The Administration generally may not duplicate another Federal agency’s work, unless this chapter expressly allows it. The section also defines “agricultural enterprises.”

(a) General prohibition; exception. The Administration may not duplicate another Federal department or agency’s work or activity. Nothing in this chapter authorizes duplication unless this chapter expressly provides for it. However, no duplication is considered to have occurred when the other agency responsible for the work refuses or denies loan applications because of administrative withholding from obligation or apportionment, or an administratively declared moratorium. (b) “Agricultural enterprises” defined. In this chapter, “agricultural enterprises” means small businesses engaged in producing food and fiber, ranching, raising livestock, aquaculture, and all other farming and agriculture-related industries. This section does not define “small business concerns.”
