Ann M. Veneman, Secretary, United States Department of Agriculture, Appellee Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia (cv01729) Mona Lyons argued the cause and filed the briefs for appellant.

Before: Ginsburg, Chief Judge, and Rogers and Tatel, Circuit Judges. Opinion for the court filed by Chief Judge Ginsburg. Ginsburg, Chief Judge: Lloyd Shaffer appeals the decision of the district court dismissing his case for want of jurisdic- tion.

We affirm. I. Background Lloyd Shaffer is a Mississippi farmer who has received assistance from the USDA during much of the past thirty years. In 1997 he filed in the district court a race discrimina- tion claim against the USDA regarding loan applications he made in 1992 and 1997.
