Farm Credit Administration

The Farm Credit Administration (FCA) is an independent US federal agency that regulates and examines the Farm Credit System (FCS) — a nationwide network of cooperatively owned banks and associations providing credit and financial services to farmers, ranchers, agricultural cooperatives and rural infrastructure — and the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (Farmer Mac). FCA publishes no developer portal, no API documentation and no OpenAPI, and its own digital strategy still lists "make existing high-value data and content available through web APIs" as Not begun, due May 2013. It does, however, serve one live, anonymous, machine-readable API that is linked from no developer page: an Esri ArcGIS Server REST surface at wgis.fca.gov publishing Farm Credit System institution headquarters, branch offices and chartered-territory polygons as JSON, GeoJSON and PBF, keyed on the UNINUM institution identifier that also keys the quarterly Call Report bulk downloads.

Farm Credit Administration publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Agriculture, Farms, Federal Government, Finance, and Regulations.

Farm Credit Administration’s developer surface includes support, product news, YouTube channel, authentication, code examples, and 35 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Government & Public Sector regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/farm-credit-administration: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
