     This Consulting Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into on May 19,
1999, between Castle & Cooke, Inc., a Hawaii corporation ("COMPANY"), and
Wallace S. Miyahira ("CONSULTANT").


                                       RECITALS

     A.   CONSULTANT will be retiring as an employee of COMPANY and COMPANY
wishes to retain CONSULTANT to perform certain services ("Services") following
his retirement as deemed necessary or desirable by the COMPANY's Chairman and
CEO or by the senior executive for the COMPANY's Oahu residential and commercial
operations.

     B.   CONSULTANT has the skills, training and expertise necessary to perform
the Services required by COMPANY.

     C.   COMPANY requires the utmost flexibility in contracting for and
scheduling performance of the Services.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual
covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, receipt
of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


                                      AGREEMENT

     1.   SERVICES

     A.   CONSULTANT shall commence providing the Services on the first
business day of the month following his retirement from the Company and shall
continue to do so to and including December 31, 1999 (the "Term") unless
sooner terminated as provided herein. This Agreement may be continued on a
month to month basis following December 31, 1999 upon such terms as may be
agreed to in writing by the parties.

     B.   CONSULTANT will render the Services to COMPANY, and COMPANY will pay
CONSULTANT for the Services, the sum of $14,000 per calendar month, plus the
applicable Hawaii general excise tax (or any successor tax thereto).  While
CONSULTANT is not required to devote a specific amount of time  to the
performance of Services each month, the parties agree that the intent of this
Agreement is that CONSULTANT's services will average approximately ninety (90)
hours per month over the Term of this Agreement.  Amounts to CONSULTANT
hereunder shall be payable on the tenth business day of each calendar month for
services during the prior month.

     C.   COMPANY shall reimburse CONSULTANT for reasonable business
expenditures

                                      1

made and substantiated in accordance with the policies and procedures
established from time to time by COMPANY.

     D.   During the Term, CONSULTANT agrees to use his best efforts in
rendering Services to COMPANY.  CONSULTANT shall perform his duties as requested
by COMPANY in a professional manner and in a manner which shall be in the best
interest of COMPANY.  CONSULTANT shall exercise such care as an ordinary prudent
person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances.
CONSULTANT may work for others provided they are not competitors of COMPANY and
so long as there is no impairment of the performance of Services.

     E.   CONSULTANT's primary focus shall be on long-range planning and
government affairs as they affect COMPANY, but CONSULTANT shall also provide
such other services and advice as is within the scope of his professional
expertise.

     F.   CONSULTANT shall comply with all applicable laws and workplace
policies in performing the Services.

     2.   STATUS OF PARTIES

     A.   COMPANY neither reserves, nor will it exercise, control over the
method or manner by which CONSULTANT provides the Services.  It is understood
and agreed by the parties that no joint venture, partnership, employment, agency
or other relationship between COMPANY and CONSULTANT, or CONSULTANT's employees
or agents, is created by this Agreement.  No agent, employee or servant of
CONSULTANT shall be deemed to be the employee, agent or servant of COMPANY.  The
parties agree that CONSULTANT cannot and shall not contract on behalf of
COMPANY.  CONSULTANT shall perform Services as an independent contractor, and
not as an agent or employee of COMPANY, and nothing enumerated herein shall be
construed to be inconsistent with this statement.  Neither CONSULTANT nor
CONSULTANT's dependents, family members, heirs, successors or assigns will be
entitled to any benefits that COMPANY provides to employees, including but not
limited to medical and dental plans, life insurance, vacation pay, pension or
profit sharing plans, bonuses or other forms of deferred compensation as a
result of this Agreement.  CONSULTANT shall be solely responsible, as an
independent contractor, for the payment of all CONSULTANT's employment, payroll
and other taxes.

     B.   CONSULTANT is currently a member of the Board of Directors of COMPANY
and has been nominated to continue to serve as a Director.  Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, while CONSULTANT serves as a Director of the
COMPANY, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to limit
CONSULTANT's duties or obligations as a Director, including without limitation,
his duty of care and his duty of loyalty to the COMPANY and his reporting
obligations under applicable securities laws.  The parties also intend and agree
that during the Term of this Agreement and during extensions as may be agreed to
by the parties in accordance with Section 1.A. above, CONSULTANT will not be
entitled to compensation for his services as a Director.  By way of
illustration, during the Term of this Agreement CONSULTANT will not be entitled
to Director retainer fees, fees for attending meetings of the Board of
Directors,

                                      2

or share credits under the COMPANY'S Deferred Stock Compensation Plan for
Non-Employee Directors.

     3.   WARRANTIES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS

     A.   CONSULTANT agrees to indemnify COMPANY from and against any loss,
claims, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by
COMPANY arising out of or in connection with any breach of CONSULTANT's
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder, including but
not limited to taxes, penalties and interest, assessed against COMPANY as a
result of a determination by any government agency that CONSULTANT's
relationship with COMPANY was other than that of an independent contractor.

     B.   CONSULTANT warrants that he has the authority to enter into this
Agreement and that neither this Agreement nor CONSULTANT's performance hereunder
breaches any other contracts, commitments, agreements, or understandings into
which CONSULTANT has entered.

     C.   COMPANY agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless CONSULTANT from
and against any losses, claims, costs or expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred by CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection with (i)
any breach of COMPANY's obligations hereunder, and (ii) any claims by third
parties relating to CONSULTANT's performance of his obligations hereunder or
otherwise relating to the business or operations of COMPANY, excluding, however,
claims caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT.

     4.   CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

     All information of or concerning COMPANY in any form which is or was
previously made available to CONSULTANT, whether as a result of prior employment
with COMPANY or in connection with the performance of Services hereunder, shall
be treated as confidential information ("Confidential Information"), belongs
solely to COMPANY and shall not be used by CONSULTANT for any purpose other than
to perform the Services hereunder.  CONSULTANT shall not disclose any
Confidential Information to others, except to his employees and related third
parties whose duties so require.  CONSULTANT shall be responsible for any
unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information by CONSULTANT or
by any of his employees or related third parties and for any loss, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, suffered by COMPANY proximately caused thereby.
CONSULTANT's obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure shall not apply to
any portion of the Confidential Information which is or shall have become public
knowledge, by publication or otherwise through no fault of CONSULTANT or is
required to be disclosed by law.

     5.   OWNERSHIP AND USE OF CONSULTANT'S WORK FOR COMPANY

     CONSULTANT acknowledges that all work papers, documentation and other
material

and may not be used by CONSULTANT for any other purpose whatsoever; provided
that COMPANY will not use CONSULTANT's name or attribute any statement,
analysis or information to CONSULTANT without CONSULTANT's prior approval,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further, that
CONSULTANT may use such materials to perform Services hereunder, to monitor
or evaluate such Services or to develop internally CONSULTANT's professional
capability.  Upon completion of the Services, or termination pursuant to
Section 6 hereof, CONSULTANT shall, at the COMPANY's direction, destroy all
materials furnished by COMPANY, all of CONSULTANT's work papers, analyses,

internal purposes one copy of each written report furnished to COMPANY by
CONSULTANT; provided that the obligations of CONSULTANT pursuant to Section 4
hereof shall survive with respect to each such copy maintained by CONSULTANT
for as long as CONSULTANT maintains such copy.  Should CONSULTANT no longer
desire to maintain such copy, CONSULTANT shall return each such copy to
COMPANY.

     6.   TERMINATION

     A.   Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without
cause, by providing at least two (2) weeks' written notice to the other party.
