While § 2243 provides a broad grant of authority to manage and administer the Farm Credit Administration, subsection (2) directs the Board to “provide for the examination of the condition of, and general regulation of the performance of the powers, functions, and duties vested in, each institution of the Farm Credit System.” This constitutes a specific regulatory task related to ensuring the financial health and performance of the Farm Credit System’s institutions. Given that this is a specific instruction from Congress, it fits into Hickman’s definition of Specific Authority. The authority provided by the other listed statutes may provide additional support for the regulations.
Although it provides a broad mandate, subsection (1) specifies the task of approving regulations for the implementation of the chapter. Subsections (2) and (4) also explicitly detail the actions (examination, general regulation, and requiring reports) the Board should be undertaking. It instructs the agency on specific regulatory tasks, therefore qualifies as specific authority delegation.
While the statute directs the Board to approve rules and regulations and provides specific areas like examination and reporting requirements, the overall authority granted is broad. The statute doesn’t prescribe specific regulatory tasks that the agency must address beyond implementing the chapter generally, making it a “General Authority” delegation under Hickman’s framework. Even though clause (2) specifies “examination of the condition of, and general regulation of the performance of the powers, functions, and duties vested in, each institution of the Farm Credit System” which sounds specific, it’s still a broad mandate for how the agency does this regulation.

This overall grant of power without highly specific instruction aligns with General Authority Delegation.
While 12 U.S.C. § 2243 grants broad powers to the Board of the Farm Credit Administration, including managing the Administration and approving rules, it also identifies specific regulatory tasks.

While the statute grants broad authority to manage and administer the Farm Credit Administration, subsection (1), which speaks to rules and regulations, can be seen as providing specific instructions for regulatory action tied directly to the implementation of the chapter itself.
