1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of
the management of Land O'Lakes, Inc. (the "Company"), all normal, recurring
adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results
of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The statements are
condensed and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the
audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended
December 31, 2003 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of
operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

      In May, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liability and Equity." The
statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and
equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is
within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The
statement was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2004. The adoption of
this standard did not have a material impact on the Company.

      In December 2003, the FASB revised Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits." The statement revises the disclosures about pension and other
postretirement benefit plans. It requires additional disclosure regarding
changes in benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets. The statement was
effective for the Company as of December 31, 2003. The Company adopted this
Statement for the year ended December 31, 2003, and has provided the interim
disclosures in Note 10, Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.

      On January 12, 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 106-1,
"Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription
Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003" (the "Act"). The position
permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a
prescription drug benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for
the effects of the Act. Regardless of whether a sponsor elects that deferral,
the position requires certain disclosures pending further consideration of the
underlying accounting issues. The Company has chosen to defer accounting for the
benefit until the FASB issues final accounting guidance due to various
uncertainties related to this legislation and the appropriate accounting. The
Company's measures of its accumulated projected benefit obligation and net
periodic postretirement benefit costs as of and for the three months ended March
31, 2004 do not reflect the effect of the Act.

2. MOARK LLC CONSOLIDATION AND PLANNED ACQUISITION OF MINORITY INTEREST

      At December 31, 2002, the Company carried its 50% ownership interest in
MoArk under the equity method with an investment balance of $44.7 million.
Osborne Investments, LLC ("Osborne") owned the remaining interest in MoArk. In
the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company increased its ownership from
50% to 57.5% with an additional investment of $7.8 million. In addition, the
Company has the right to acquire (and Osborne has the right to require the
Company to acquire) the remaining 42.5% of MoArk owned by Osborne by making a
$42.2 million minimum payment in 2007.

      In accordance with the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46, effective
July 1, 2003, the Company consolidated MoArk into its financial statements.
Although Osborne has a 42.5% ownership interest in MoArk, the Company continues
to be allocated 100% of the income or loss from the operations of MoArk (other
than on capital

                                       6
<PAGE>

transactions involving a realized gain or loss on intangible assets, which are
allocated 50/50). In addition to consolidating MoArk, the Company has presumed
for accounting purposes that it will acquire the remaining 42.5% in 2007.
Effective July 1, 2003, the Company recorded this presumed $42.2 million payment
as a long-term liability in the consolidated balance sheet as "employee benefits
and other liabilities" at a present value of $31.6 million using an effective
interest rate of 7%. The present value of this liability is $33.2 million at
March 31, 2004.

3. RESTRICTED CASH

      On March 28, 2003, Cheese and Protein International LLC ("CPI"), a
96.5%-owned consolidated subsidiary, amended its lease for property and
equipment relating to its cheese manufacturing and whey processing plant in
Tulare, California. The amendment postponed the measurement of the fixed charge
coverage ratio requirement contained in the lease until March 2005. The
amendment requires Land O'Lakes to maintain a $20 million cash account (which
may be replaced by a letter of credit at the Company's option) to support the
lease. The cash account or letter of credit would only be drawn upon in the
event of a CPI default and would reduce amounts otherwise due under the lease.
The requirement can be lifted pending the achievement of certain financial
targets by CPI.

</TABLE>

      A substantial portion of Land O'Lakes receivables is concentrated in
agriculture, as well as wholesale and retail food industries. Collections of
these receivables may be dependent upon economic returns in these industries.
The Company's credit risks are continually reviewed, and management believes
that adequate provisions have been made for doubtful accounts.

5. RECEIVABLES PURCHASE FACILITY

      In December 2001, the Company established a $100 million receivables
purchase facility with CoBank, ACB ("CoBank"). In March 2004, the facility was
expanded to $200 million. A wholly-owned, unconsolidated special purpose entity
("SPE") has been established to purchase certain receivables from the Company.
CoBank has been granted an interest in the pool of receivables owned by the SPE.
The transfers of the receivables from the Company to the SPE are structured as
sales and, accordingly, the receivables transferred to the SPE are not reflected
in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the Company retains credit risk
related to the repayment of the notes receivable with the SPE, which, in turn,
is dependent upon the credit risk of the SPE's receivables pool. Accordingly,
the Company has retained reserves for estimated losses. The Company expects no
significant gains or losses from the facility. At March 31, 2004, $120 million
was outstanding under this facility and $20 million was outstanding under this
facility at December 31, 2003. The total accounts receivable sold during the
three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were $710 million and $673 million,
respectively.

</TABLE>

      In the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company amended its
receivables securitization facility which expanded the facility from $100
million to $200 million. The incremental proceeds from the expansion were used
to make prepayments on the term loans. A mandatory $76.0 million payment in full
was made for Term A loan and a $24.0 million partial repayment was made for Term
B loan. Additional prepayments made in the three months ended March 31, 2004
were $16.5 million for Term A loan and $10.0 million for Term B loan. The
weighted average interest rates on short-term borrowings and notes outstanding
at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were 3.40% and 3.56%, respectively.

      Borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the term loans bear
interest at variable rates (either LIBOR or an Alternative Base Rate) plus
applicable margins. The margins depend on Land O'Lakes leverage ratio in the
case of the revolving credit facility. The margin on the Term B loan is fixed at
350 basis points over LIBOR. Based upon Land O'Lakes leverage ratio as of March
31, 2004, the LIBOR margin for the revolving credit facility is 250 basis
points. Spreads for the Alternative Base Rate are 100 basis points lower than
the applicable LIBOR spreads. LIBOR may be set for one, two, three or six month
periods at the election of Land O'Lakes. As of March 31, 2004, the interest rate
on the Term B loan was 4.59%.

      In April and May, 2004, the Company entered into three $50 million
fixed-to-floating interest rate swap agreements, designated as fair value
hedges, in an effort to return to historical exposure levels for floating
interest rate debt. These swaps mirror the terms of the 8.75% notes and
effectively convert $150 million of such notes from a fixed 8.75% rate to an
effective rate of LIBOR plus 385 basis points.

3.  RECEIVABLES PURCHASE FACILITY

    In December 2001, Land O'Lakes Farmland along with Land O'Lakes, Inc.,
established a $100 million receivables purchase facility with CoBank, ACB
("CoBank"). In March 2004, the facility was expanded to $200 million. A
wholly-owned, unconsolidated special purpose entity ("SPE") was established to
purchase certain receivables from Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed and Land O'Lakes,
Inc. CoBank has been granted an interest in the pool of receivables owned by the
SPE. The transfers of the receivables from Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed to the SPE
are structured as sales and, accordingly, the receivables transferred to the SPE
are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. However, Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed retains credit risk related to the repayment of the notes
receivable with the SPE, which, in turn, is dependent upon the credit risk of
the SPE's receivables pool. Accordingly, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed has retained
reserves for estimated losses. Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed expects no significant
gains or losses from the facility. At March 31, 2004, $120 million was
outstanding under this facility. The total amount of accounts receivable sold
during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were $607 million and $552
million, respectively.

GUARANTEES OF PARENT DEBT

    In December 2003, Land O'Lakes, Inc., which owns 92% of Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed, issued $175 million of senior secured notes, due 2010. In
November 2001, Land O'Lakes, Inc. issued $350 million of senior unsecured notes,
due 2011. Both of these notes are guaranteed by certain domestic wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Land O'Lakes, Inc., including Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed, and by
each domestic wholly-owned subsidiary of Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed.

    The guarantee of the senior secured notes is secured by substantially the
same assets securing Land O'Lakes, Inc. senior credit facilities. The guarantee
of the senior unsecured notes is a general unsecured obligation, ranks equally
in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed, is senior in right of payment to all existing and future
subordinated obligations of Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed, and is effectively
subordinated to any secured indebtedness of Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed and its
subsidiaries to the extent of the value of the assets securing such
indebtedness. The maximum potential amount of future payments that Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed would be required to make is $525 million as of March 31, 2004.
Currently, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed does not record a liability regarding the
guarantees. Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed has no recourse provision that would
enable it to recover amounts paid under the guarantees from Land O'Lakes, Inc.
or any other parties.

    The notes are not guaranteed by certain majority-owned subsidiaries of Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed (the "Non-Guarantors"). Summarized financial information
of the Non-Guarantors, which is consolidated in the financial statements of Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed, as of and for the periods indicated, are as follows:

During the three months ended March 31, 2004 Land O'Lakes, Inc. made prepayments
on the facilities. The Term Loan A facility was completely paid off with these
prepayments. The remaining facility is unconditionally guaranteed by certain
domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries of Land O'Lakes, Inc., including Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed, and by each domestic wholly-owned subsidiary of Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed. The maximum potential payment related to this guarantee is $118.4
million as of March 31, 2004. Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed does not currently
record a liability related to the guarantee of the term loan, and Land O'Lakes
Farmland Feed has no recourse provisions that would enable it to recover from

GUARANTEES OF PRODUCER LOANS

    Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed guarantees certain loans to large producers
financed by LOL Finance Co. The loans totaled $14.6 million and $15.1 million at
March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. Reserves for these
guarantees of $1.1 million and $1.2 million at March 31, 2004 and December 31,
2003, respectively, are included in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The
maximum amount guaranteed by Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed is $7.0 million with the
remaining balance guaranteed by Land O'Lakes, Inc. There were no write-offs
related to producer loans for the three months ended March 31, 2004 or the year
ended December 31, 2003. Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed does not currently record a
liability related to the guarantee of the producer loans. Land O'Lakes Farmland
Feed would have recourse against the producer to partially off-set the
liability.

1. ORGANIZATION

      Purina Mills, LLC ("Purina Mills") was established in October, 2001
through the merger of Purina Mills, Inc. with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Land
O'Lakes, Inc. As a result of the merger, Purina Mills, Inc. was reorganized as a
limited liability company, renamed Purina Mills, LLC, and was contributed to
Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC ("Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed") on October 11,
2001.

      Since October 2001, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed has been integrating Purina
Mills's operations into its own to decrease operating costs and to generate
other integration-related synergies. In January 2003, Nestle Purina PetCare
Company ("NPPC") consented to the transfer of the Purina license from Purina
Mills to Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed. This transfer granted Land O'Lakes Farmland
Feed the exclusive right to use the Purina, Chow and the "Checkerboard" Nine
Square logo on a perpetual, royalty-free basis. In January of 2003, Purina Mills
distributed most of its net assets to its parent, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed. At
March 31, 2004, although Purina Mills still owned a significant amount of
property, plant, and equipment, these assets generated no revenue for Purina
Mills since they are operated and controlled by Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed.

2. STATEMENT PRESENTATION

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Purina Mills
and wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and limited liability
companies. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Purina
Mills's parent company, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed, conducts a portion of its
operations using Purina Mills's property, plant, and equipment. Accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements reflect depreciation expense associated with
these assets for which no reimbursement is received from the parent company.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of
the management of Purina Mills, LLC, all normal recurring adjustments necessary
for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations and
cash flows for the interim periods. The statements are condensed, and therefore
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. For further information, refer to Purina Mills's audited
consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31,
2003 included in Land O'Lakes, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of
operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.

4. RECEIVABLES

      A summary of receivables is as follows:

5. RECEIVABLES PURCHASE FACILITY

      In December 2001, Purina Mills along with Land O'Lakes, Inc. and Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC, established a $100 million receivables purchase
facility with CoBank, ACB ("CoBank"). In March 2004, the facility was expanded
to $200 million. A wholly-owned, unconsolidated special purpose entity ("SPE")
was established to purchase certain receivables from Purina Mills, Land O'Lakes,
Inc and Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed. CoBank has been granted an interest in the
pool of receivables owned by the SPE. The transfers of the receivables from
Purina Mills to the SPE are structured as sales and, accordingly, the
receivables transferred to the SPE are not reflected in

                                       34
<PAGE>

the consolidated balance sheet. On January 1, 2004, a subsidiary of Purina Mills
started to sell certain receivables to the SPE. Purina Mills's parent, Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed, holds a note receivable from the SPE and retains credit
risk related to the repayment of the notes receivable from the SPE. Repayment of
the note receivable and the cash reimbursement to Purina Mills is dependent upon
the credit risk of the SPE's receivables pool. At March 31, 2004, $120 million
was outstanding under this facility. The total amount of accounts receivable
sold during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were $1.9 million and
$0.0 million, respectively.

8. GAIN ON LEGAL SETTLEMENTS

      Purina Mills recognized gains on legal settlements of $0.3 million and
$0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively,
related to litigation with vitamin product suppliers against whom Purina Mills
alleged certain price-fixing claims.

9. GAIN ON SALE OF INVESTMENT

      For the three months ended March 31, 2003, Purina Mills recorded a gain of
$0.5 million on the sale of an investment in a swine joint venture.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

GUARANTEE OF PARENT DEBT

      In December 2003, Land O'Lakes, Inc. issued $175 million of senior secured
notes, due 2010. In November 2001, Land O'Lakes, Inc. issued $350 million of
senior unsecured notes, due 2011. Both of these notes are guaranteed by Purina
Mills and by each domestic wholly-owned subsidiary of Purina Mills.

      The guarantee of the senior secured notes is secured by substantially the
same assets securing Land O'Lakes, Inc. senior credit facilities. The guarantee
of the senior unsecured notes is a general unsecured obligation, ranks equally
in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of Purina
Mills, is senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated
obligations of Purina Mills, and is effectively subordinated to any secured
indebtedness of Purina Mills and its subsidiaries to the extent of the value of
the assets securing such indebtedness. The maximum potential amount of future
payments that Purina Mills would be required to make is $525 million as of March
31, 2004. Currently, Purina Mills does not record a liability regarding the
guarantees. Purina Mills has no recourse provision that would enable it to
recover amounts paid under the guarantees from Land O'Lakes, Inc. or any other
parties.

      The notes are not guaranteed by certain majority-owned subsidiaries of
Purina Mills (the "Non-Guarantors"). Summarized financial information of the
Non-Guarantors, which is consolidated in the financial statements of Purina
Mills, as of and for the periods indicated, are as follows:

      In November 2001, Land O'Lakes, Inc. entered into term facilities
consisting of a five-year Term Loan A facility and a seven-year Term Loan B
facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2004 Land O'Lakes, Inc. made
prepayments on the facilities. The Term Loan A facility was completely paid off
with these prepayments. The remaining facility is unconditionally guaranteed by
certain domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries of Land O'Lakes, Inc., including
Purina Mills and by each domestic wholly-owned subsidiary of Purina Mills. The
maximum potential payment related to this guarantee is $118.4 million as of
March 31, 2004. Purina Mills does not currently record a liability related to
the guarantee of the term loan, and Purina Mills has no recourse provisions that
would enable it to recover from Land O'Lakes, Inc. or any other parties.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Purina Mills records depreciation expense for property, plant, and
equipment used by the parent company, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed, to conduct its
business. Purina Mills receives no reimbursement for this expense, which was
$4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004, Purina Mills did not pay for
certain selling, general and administrative expenses. These costs include sales
and marketing support, corporate and other administrative and management costs
which were paid for and expensed by Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

      You should read the following discussions of financial condition and
results of operations together with the financial statements and the notes to
such statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

GENERAL

      We operate our business predominantly in the United States in six
segments: Dairy Foods, Feed, Seed, Swine, Agronomy and Layers. For the three
months ended March 31, 2004, we reported net sales of $2.0 billion and net
earnings of $46.5 million compared to net sales of $1.5 billion and a net loss
of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The combination of
increased market prices primarily in our dairy foods and layers segments,
increased volumes in our dairy foods and seed segments, increased equity
earnings in our agronomy and layers segments, and an increase in unrealized
hedging gains resulted in the net earnings growth.

      In April 2004, we announced our intention to reposition our MoArk layers
business for strategic growth. While no method for growth has yet been
identified, several alternatives are being considered, including financing at
the joint venture level, partnerships, or divestiture.

      In March 2004, we completed an amendment to our receivables securitization
facility. The amendment increased the facility from $100 million to $200 million
and extended the facility's term from one year to three years. Concurrently with
the amendment, we sold $100 million of additional receivables and applied the
proceeds to our outstanding senior bank facilities, which included the mandatory
payment in full of our term A loan facility.

      In January 2004, we completed amendments to our senior credit facilities.
The amendments included an extension of our revolving credit facility for an
additional three years.

UNCONSOLIDATED BUSINESSES

      We have investments in certain entities that are not consolidated in our
financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, equity in
earnings from our unconsolidated businesses amounted to $17.4 million compared
to equity in losses of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Our investment in unconsolidated businesses amounted to $514.1 million at March
31, 2004 and $506.6 million at December 31, 2003. Cash flow from our equity
investments for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $8.7 million compared
to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

      Agriliance and CF Industries, Inc. constitute the most significant of our
investments in unconsolidated businesses, both of which are reflected in our
agronomy segment results. We hold a 50% ownership interest in Agriliance along
with United Country Brands (wholly-owned by CHS Inc.). CF Industries is an
inter-regional cooperative in which we have a 38% ownership interest based on
our member product purchases. Our ownership in Agriliance is accounted for under
the equity method and our interest in CF Industries is accounted for on a cost
basis. Our investments in, and earnings from, Agriliance and CF Industries were
as follows as of and for the three months ended:

</TABLE>

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004, net earnings for Agriliance
were $13.3 million, up $18.8 million versus the three months ended March 31,
2003. This increase is primarily the result of increased earnings from the crop
protection products business due to timing of vendor rebates and a 4% increase
in sales. In addition, expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2004
decreased by $3.7 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003 due
to reduced severance and insurance expenses in 2004. Partially offsetting these
increases was a $0.3

                                       37
<PAGE>

million decrease in the crop nutrient products business. This decrease was due
to a 0.3 million-ton volume decline partially offset by an increase in margins
due to lower input costs and a change in product mix. We did not receive cash
distributions from Agriliance during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
March 31, 2003.

      Since CF Industries is a cooperative, we only receive earnings from our
investment when the cooperative allocates and distributes patronage to us. No
patronage was allocated and distributed to us in the three months ended March
31, 2004, nor has any patronage been allocated during for the last four years
because CF Industries realized losses in those years. We anticipate that no
patronage allocations will occur until these losses have been recouped.

      Our layers segment consists of our joint venture in MoArk, LLC. Through
June 30, 2003, MoArk was unconsolidated and our interest was recorded only as
equity in earnings or loss from affiliated companies using the equity method of
accounting. Effective July 1, 2003, MoArk was consolidated in our financial
statements as required by Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation
No. 46 ("FIN 46") and we did not restate prior periods. Accordingly, the
financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and the three
months ended March 31, 2003 are not comparable for several categories, including
sales and gross profit in this segment. Sales of $174.5 million and gross profit
of $34.9 million were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004 in this
segment. There were no sales and gross profit for the three months ended March
31, 2003 as MoArk was accounted for under the equity method during these
periods.

SEASONALITY

      Certain segments of our business are subject to seasonal fluctuations in
demand. In our dairy foods segment, butter sales typically increase in the fall
and winter months due to increased demand during holiday periods. Feed sales
tend to increase in the first and fourth quarter of each year because cattle are
less able to graze during cooler months. Most seed sales occur in the first and
fourth quarters of each year. Agronomy product sales tend to be much higher in
the first and second quarter of each year, as farmers buy crop nutrient and crop
protection products to meet their seasonal needs.

DAIRY AND AGRICULTURAL COMMODITY INPUTS AND OUTPUTS

      Many of our products, particularly in our dairy foods, feed, swine and
layers segments, use dairy or agricultural commodities as inputs or constitute
dairy or agricultural commodity outputs. Consequently, our results are affected
by the cost of commodity inputs and the market price of commodity outputs.
Government regulation of the dairy industry and industry practices in animal
feed tend to stabilize margins in those segments but do not protect against
large movements in either input costs or output prices.

      Dairy Foods. Raw milk is the major commodity input for our dairy foods
segment. Our dairy foods outputs, namely butter, cheese and nonfat dry milk, are
also commodities. The minimum price of raw milk and cream is set monthly by
Federal regulators based on regional prices of dairy foods products produced.
These prices provide the basis for our raw milk and cream input costs. As a
result, those dairy foods products for which the sales price is fixed shortly
after production, such as most bulk cheese, are not usually subject to
significant commodity price risk as the price received for the output usually
varies with the cost of the significant inputs. For the three months ended March
31, 2004, bulk cheese sales represented approximately 8% of the dairy foods
segment's net sales.

      We maintain significant inventories of butter and cheese for sale to our
retail and food service customers, which are subject to commodity price risk.
Because production of raw milk and demand for butter varies seasonally, we
inventory significant amounts of butter. Demand for butter is highest during the
fall and winter, when milk supply is lowest. As a result, we produce and store
excess quantities of butter during the spring when milk supply is highest. In
addition, we maintain some inventories of cheese for aging. For the three months
ended March 31, 2004, we experienced a rising dairy price environment. The
financial impact to building inventories in a market with price volatility will
depend on what market trends occur up to and through the fall and winter of
2004. For the three months ended March 31, 2004 net sales of butter and cheese
products to retail and food service customers represent approximately 38% of the
dairy foods segment sales.

      Market prices for commodities such as butter and cheese can have a
significant impact on both the cost of products produced and the price for which
products are sold. The per pound market price of butter averaged $1.75 for the
three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $1.07 for the three months ended
March 31, 2003. The per-

                                       38
<PAGE>

pound market price for butter on December 31, 2003 was $1.25. In the past three
years, the lowest average monthly market price for butter was $0.96 in September
2002 and the highest average monthly market price was $2.20 in March 2004. The
per-pound market price for block cheese averaged $1.49 for the three months
ended March 31, 2004, compared to $1.11 for the three months ended March 31,
2003. In the past three years, the lowest monthly market price for block cheese
was $1.07 in March, 2003 and the highest monthly market price was $1.80 in March
2004. The per-pound market price for block cheese on December 31, 2003 was
$1.31.

      We maintain a sizable dairy manufacturing presence in the Upper Midwest.
This region has seen significant declines in cow numbers and its share of
nationwide dairy manufacturing volume. This decline has put pressure on our
Upper Midwest milk input costs and is one of the factors resulting in losses for
the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003; however, operating losses for
2004 declined from the three months ended March 31, 2003 by $2.2 million due to
the effect of higher cheese and whey market prices. We continue to explore
additional initiatives to improve our Upper Midwest dairy infrastructure in an
effort to increase efficiencies and reduce costs. Based on initiatives we
started in 2002, including the impending closure of the Volga, South Dakota
plant in 2004, we incurred $0.4 million and $1.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, for restructuring and impairment
charges related to the Upper Midwest.

      Margins on our mozzarella and whey products, primarily in our western
cheese operations, remained weak for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Soft
demand for mozzarella and whey and over-capacity in the mozzarella industry
continued to place pressure on the margins these products generate. However,
market prices have moved higher for both cheese and whey products for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period for 2003 due to a rising
dairy price environment. Market softness and other factors have contributed to
start-up losses for the three months ended March 31, 2004 at our new Tulare,
California mozzarella and whey manufacturing facility, Cheese & Protein
International LLC ("CPI"). We expect pretax losses at CPI to continue at least
through 2004 as we complete our planned Phase II installation, which will
approximately double the plant capacity and improve profitability. Once our
planned Phase II installation is completed later in 2004, we expect our total
investment in the CPI facility to be approximately $186 million in property,
plant and equipment.

      Feed. The Feed segment follows industry standards for feed pricing. The
feed industry generally prices products based on income over ingredient cost per
ton of feed. This practice tends to mitigate the impact of volatility in
commodity ingredient markets on our animal feed profits. As ingredient costs
fluctuate, the changes are generally passed on to customers through weekly or
monthly changes in prices. Accordingly, net sales are less of an indicator of
performance since large fluctuations can occur from period-to-period due to
volatility in the underlying commodity ingredient prices.

      We enter into forward contracts to supply feed, which currently represent
approximately 25% of our feed output. When we enter into these contracts, we
also generally enter into forward input supply contracts to lock in our
operating margins.

      Changes in commodity grain prices have an impact on the mix of products we
sell. When grain prices are relatively high, the demand for complete feed rises
since many livestock producers are also grain growers and will sell their grain
in the market and purchase complete feed as needed. When grain prices are
relatively low, these producers will feed their grain to their livestock and
purchase premixes and supplements to provide complete nutrition to their
animals. These fluctuations in product mix generally have minimal effects on our
operating results. Complete feed has a far lower margin per ton than supplements
and premixes. Thus, during periods of relatively high grain prices, although our
margins per ton are lower, we sell substantially more tonnage because the grain
portion of complete feed makes up the majority of its weight.

      As dairy production has shifted from the Upper Midwest to the western
United States, we have seen a change in our feed product mix, with lower sales
of complete feed and increased sales of simple blends. Complete feed is
manufactured feed which meets the complete nutritional requirements of animals,
whereas a simple blend is a blending of unprocessed commodities to which the
producer then adds vitamins to supply the animal's nutritional needs. Simple
blends tend to have lower margins than complete feeds. This change in product
mix is a result of differences in industry practices. Dairy producers in the
western United States tend to purchase feed components and mix them at the farm
location rather than purchasing a complete feed product delivered to the farm.
Producers purchase grain blends and concentrated premixes from separate
suppliers. This shift is reflected in increased sales in our subsidiaries that
manufacture premixes in the western area. In addition, the increase in vertical
integration of swine and poultry producers has impacted our feed product mix by
increasing sales of lower-margin feed products.

                                       39
<PAGE>

      We have seen continued erosion of commodity feed volumes, mainly related
to historically low prices in swine and dairy markets, which has resulted in a
liquidation of herds and a decrease in feed demand. Although producer prices in
dairy and swine increased during the three months ended March 31, 2004, we
expect continued pressure on margins in dairy, poultry and swine feed to
continue in 2004 as producers closely manage their financial returns by
monitoring feed volumes and product mix . In addition, further integration and
consolidation in the swine and dairy industries is expected to continue to put
pressure on volumes in 2004. There continues to be uncertainty in the beef
livestock markets with the impact of reduced exports after the discovery of
bovine spongiform encephalopathy ("BSE;" also referred to as Mad Cow's disease)
in the U.S. marketplace. We do not believe that this uncertainty has had a
material impact on our operations.

      Swine. We produce and market both young feeder pigs (approximately 45
pounds) and mature market hogs (approximately 260 pounds) under three primary
programs: swine aligned, farrow-to-finish and cost-plus.

      Under the swine aligned program, we own sows and raise feeder pigs that we
sell to our local member cooperatives under ten-year contracts. For the first
five years, we receive a fixed base price for our feeder pigs and are reimbursed
for feed costs. In years six through ten, the price is based on the cost of
production, plus a margin designed to achieve a target return on invested
capital. Since the price for the duration of the contract is not tied to the
live hog market, we do not have market risk on feeder pig prices. In addition,
there is no risk on corn or soybean meal prices since we are reimbursed for
actual feed costs. We do incur production risk if we do not produce enough
feeder pigs or if we do not produce them at a competitive cost.

      Under the farrow-to-finish program, we produce and sell market hogs.
Historically, market hog price fluctuations have resulted in volatility in our
net sales and earnings. In order to mitigate this risk, we have committed to
sell substantially all of the market hogs we produce annually through September,
2005 under a packer agreement. Under this packer agreement, we are paid market
prices for our hogs with a settlement based on the sales price of the pork
products produced from those hogs. This approach mitigates some of the
volatility under this program because market hog and pork product margins do not
tend to move together. We sell the balance of our market hogs on the open
market. We sell feeder pigs on the open market, as well, depending on sow farm
performance and finishing space limitations. For the three months ended March
31, 2004, the average market hog price was $45.56 per hundredweight versus an
average market price of $36.43 for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

      Under the cost-plus program, we provide minimum hog price guarantees to
producers in exchange for swine feed sales and profit participation. We are in
the process of phasing out of our existing cost-plus contracts. In 2003, we
reduced our hog exposure by offering our cost-plus producers an early exit
option. Producers representing about 100,000 hogs elected this option. During
the three months ended March 31, 2004, additional contracts have expired and we
now have approximately 20,000 hogs remaining in this program compared to over
280,000 hogs at March 31, 2003. The last cost-plus contracts will expire in
August, 2005, and we will not be entering into new ones under the current
structure.

Layers. MoArk produces and markets shell eggs and egg products. MoArk's sales
and earnings fluctuate depending on egg prices. For the three months ended March
31, 2004, egg prices averaged $1.21 per dozen as measured by Urner Barry South
Central Large compared to egg prices of $0.85 for the three months ended March
31, 2003.

DERIVATIVE COMMODITY INSTRUMENTS

      We use derivative commodity instruments, primarily futures contracts, to
reduce our exposure to changes in commodity prices. These contracts are not
designated as hedges under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The futures
contracts are marked to market each month and gains or losses ("unrealized
hedging gains and losses") are recognized in our earnings. We recorded
unrealized hedging gains of $13.2 million and $2.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 AS COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
2003

Overview of Results

      Our net earnings were $46.5 million for the three months ended March 31,
2004 compared to a loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
2003. Net earnings included income tax expense of $16.6 million compared to an
income tax benefit of $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively. Earnings increased due to the effects of higher market
prices for dairy and egg products, volume growth in the dairy foods and seed
segments, and higher prices for market hogs. Earnings also improved through cost
control initiatives, increased earnings from equity in affiliated companies, and
a $1.7 million gain on a divestiture of a business in the dairy foods segment.
An increase in unrealized, hedging gains of $10.4 million also contributed to
the increased earnings. Offsetting these increases was a decrease in gain on
legal settlements to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004
compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $556.8
million, or 38.3%, to $2,011.3 million compared to the same period in 2003. The
increase was partly attributed to the consolidation of MoArk effective July 1,
2003, which increased sales by $175 million, or 12%. Increases in dairy foods,
feed, and seed sales contributed $381 million of increased sales, or 26%,
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. A discussion of net sales by
business segment is found below under the caption "Net Sales and Gross Profit by
Business Segment."

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $75.0
million, or 60%, to $200.5 million compared to $125.5 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2003. The consolidation of MoArk increased gross profit
by $35 million. The effect of higher average market prices for certain
commodities and volume increases in the dairy foods and seed segments also
contributed to the increase. Gross profit as a percent of net sales increased
1.4 percentage points to 10.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2004
compared to 8.6% for the same period in 2003. The consolidation of MoArk, which
has a higher-margin product mix, partly contributed to this increase. A
discussion of gross profit by business segment is found below under the caption
"Net Sales and Gross Profit by Business Segment."

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

      Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 increased $17.5 million, or 15%, to $134.9 million compared to
$117.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The increase was
primarily due to the consolidation of MoArk, effective July 1, 2003, which added
$9.0 million of selling, general and administrative expense in the three months
ended March 31, 2004. Increased spending of $3.8 million in the feed segment
related to advertising and promotion costs and $4.0 million higher personnel
costs in both feed and seed contributed to the higher expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 versus the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of net sales decreased
1.4 percentage points to 6.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from
8.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The decline as a percent of net
sales is partially due to the consolidation of MoArk, which has a lower
percentage of selling, general and administrative expense to net sales than our
other segments, and also due to increased sales prices in dairy foods due to a
rising dairy product commodity market.

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004, we had restructuring and
impairment charges of $0.9 million compared to $1.1 million for the same period
in 2003. In 2004, we incurred $0.4 million of restructuring charges for employee
severance in our dairy foods segment related to the impending closure of our
Volga, South Dakota cheese facility. We also incurred $0.5 million for goodwill
impairment in our seed segment related to assets held for sale. For the three
months ended March 31, 2003, dairy foods recorded a restructuring charge of $1.0
million for employee severance and outplacement costs related to discontinuing
whey production at an Upper Midwest dairy facility and feed recorded a $0.1
million asset impairment charge.

Interest Expense, Net

      Interest expense, net of interest income, was $23.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2003. Changes in our debt structure resulted in additional interest
expense of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to
the same period for the prior year. The consolidation of MoArk effective July 1,
2003, resulted in additional interest expense of $1.5 million. Also, for the
three months ended March 31, 2004, we accelerated $1.5 million of deferred
financing cost amortization as a result of prepayments made on our term loans
with proceeds from an expansion of our receivables securitization facility.
Combined interest rates for borrowings, excluding CoBank patronage, averaged
7.55% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to 6.89% for the three
months ended March 31, 2003.

Gain on Legal Settlements

      As a result of settled litigation, we recorded a gain on legal settlements
of $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to a gain on
legal settlements of $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
These gains represent cash received from product suppliers against whom we
alleged certain price-fixing claims. Although we continue to pursue related
claims, we do not expect to receive significant amounts relating to these
matters in the future.

Equity in Earnings of Affiliated Companies

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004, equity in earnings of
affiliated companies was $17.4 million compared to an equity loss of $1.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Equity in earnings from
Agriliance was $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, which was
a $9.5 million increase from an equity loss of $2.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2003. This increase was primarily driven by improved crop
protection product margins and was partially offset by a decline in crop
nutrient volumes. A discussion of net earnings for Agriliance can be found under
the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Overview - Unconsolidated Businesses." MoArk equity in
earnings from joint venture investments was $7.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended March
31, 2003. The increase in MoArk equity in earnings was driven primarily by
improved market prices for eggs, in part as a result of a declining chick hatch,
changes in response to new animal welfare guidelines and changing consumer
dietary trends.

Income Taxes

      We recorded income tax expense of $16.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 compared to a tax benefit of $5.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2003. The increase in income tax expense resulted from improved
earnings from MoArk and other non-member business, including unrealized hedging
gains.

Net Sales and Gross Profit by Business Segment

      Our reportable segments consist of business units that offer similar
products and services and/or similar customers. We have six segments: Dairy
Foods, Feed, Seed, Swine, Agronomy and Layers. Our agronomy segment consists
primarily of our 50% ownership in Agriliance, which is accounted for under the
equity method, and our 38% interest in CF Industries, which is accounted for on
a cost basis. Accordingly, no sales or gross profit are recorded for the
agronomy segment. A discussion of net earnings for Agriliance can be found under
the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Overview - Unconsolidated Businesses."

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $262.4
million, or 41.2%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Butter and
value-added cheese (retail, deli, and foodservice cheese) sales prices increased
for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003
due primarily to higher commodity prices, resulting in increased sales of $52.6
million and $14.2 million, respectively. Industrial cheese sales increased $57.5
million due to the increase in the average commodity market price of cheese, up
$.38 per pound compared to the same period in 2003. Volume increases in sales of
butter, particularly our branded butter, and value-added cheese for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 also contributed to the increase in sales by $18.8
million and $32.7 million, respectively. Butter volume increases were partly due
to the impact of our spreadable butter with canola oil product, which was
introduced in the second quarter of 2003, and also timing due to the earlier
Easter holiday and a buildup of customer inventories related to concerns about
market volatility.. Value-added cheese volume increases were due to strong
consumer demand, especially for foodservice and deli cheese. Sales through our
wholesale milk marketing program, which supplies milk to fluid dairy processors,
increased by $64.5 million compared to the same period for 2003 due primarily to
increases in milk market prices. Other product categories increased sales by
$22.1 million.

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $30.8
million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Gross profit for
value-added cheese increased $5.4 million due to higher profit margins as a
result of higher commodity market prices. Volume increases for value-added
cheese also increased gross profit by $4.7 million. Gross profit for butter
increased $2.4 million due to increased volumes. Gross profit for industrial
cheese increased by $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004
versus the same period in the prior year due to an increase in prices,
manufacturing efficiencies, and the closure of the Gustine cheese facility in
2003. An unrealized hedging gain of $8.5 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31,
2003 resulted in an additional $8.0 million of gross profit. Offsetting these
increases was a $4.5 million reduction to gross profit from our wholesale milk
marketing program. The 2.1 percentage-point increase in gross profit as a
percent of net sales is partly due to the $8.0 million increase in the
unrealized hedging gain, which accounts for 0.8 percentage points of the
increase. The remaining 1.3 percentage point increase is largely due to
increases in commodity prices and manufacturing efficiencies.

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $74.5
million, or 12.4%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003.
Ingredients sales increased $35.7 million due to higher commodity prices in the
three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. Formula
feed sales, which includes both lifestyle and livestock feeds, increased $16.2
million primarily due to increased volumes, particularly in horse and companion
lifestyle animal feed, as well as higher commodity prices. Although livestock
feed sales increased due to higher commodity prices, some of this increase was
offset by slightly lower volumes for dairy and swine feed. Continued producer
integration as well as a geographic shift in livestock numbers are the primary
causes for this volume decline. Sales of animal health, farm and ranch products
were $9.8 million higher than in the three months ended March 31, 2003 due to
the creation of Heritage Trading Company, a consolidated joint venture formed in
March of 2003. Sales at a Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC subsidiary increased
$13.9 million mainly due to increased sales of premix products.

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $3.6
million, or 5.0%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Sales of
ingredients resulted in $3.7 million of additional gross profit due to focused
purchasing opportunities in rising commodity markets. Gross profit for animal
health, farm and ranch products was $0.6 million higher than for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 due to the creation of Heritage Trading Company.
Increased sales at a premix subsidiary resulted in increased gross profit of
$0.7 million. An unrealized hedging gain of $5.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March
31, 2003 resulted in an additional $4.0 million of gross profit. Partially
offsetting these increases was a decline in formula feed gross profit of $2.3
million due to volume declines in livestock feeds, product mix changes, and
increased costs of packaging and other supplies. Gross profit also decreased
$2.0 million due to increased freight subsidies resulting from higher fuel
costs. Gross profit as a percent of net sales declined from 12.0% to 11.2% for
the three months ended March 31, 2004 versus 2003, respectively. The decline is
primarily due to product mix changes to lower-margin formula feed products and
increased packaging, supplies, and fuel costs. Offsetting the decline was an
increase to gross profit as a percent of net sales of 0.8% for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 compared to 0.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2003
due to the effects of unrealized hedging gains.

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $51.5
million, or 26.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Corn seed
sales increased $29.2 million due to volume growth in partnered products and
product mix in our proprietary brands. Soybean sales increased $16.3 million for
this same period primarily as a result of increased volumes in both proprietary
and partnered brands. Alfalfa sales also increased $4.0 million mainly due to
increased demand in international markets.

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $5.7
million, or 22.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. Stronger
corn seed sales resulted in increased gross profit of $3.3 million. Soybean
gross profit was $2.3 million higher for the three months ended March 31, 2004
compared to the same period in 2003 mainly due to volume growth. Alfalfa gross
profit increased by $2.7 million due to increased volumes and a lower cost base
compared to the same period for 2003. Offsetting these increases was an
unrealized hedging loss on soybean futures contracts for $2.9 million for the
period ended March 31, 2004 compared to an unrealized hedging loss of $0.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Gross profit as a percent of
net sales declined to 12.7%, or 0.4 percentage points, compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2003, due to the increased unrealized hedging loss
recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

</TABLE>

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $1.3
million, or 6.1%, compared to the same period last year. Average market hog
prices increased from $36.43 per hundredweight for the three months ended March
31, 2003 to $45.56 per hundredweight for the three months ended March 31, 2004
due to stronger consumer demand which resulted in a sales increase of $2.2
million. Offsetting this increase was a decrease in the number of market hogs
sold which reduced sales by $.3 million. In addition, sales under our packer
agreement, which ties the price we receive for market hogs to the price that the
packer receives for pork products, declined by $.6 million due to price.

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $1.1
million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2003. The increase in
average market hog prices resulted in a gross profit improvement of $2.2
million. Gross profit also increased by $1.3 million due to reduced expenses for
our cost-plus program, which ties producer payments we make under the program to
market hog prices, as a result of higher market hog prices. Partially offsetting
these increases were $0.6 million of higher corn and soybean meal costs and a
$0.6 million decline in price related to the packer agreement versus the three
months ended March 31, 2003. A decline in unrealized hedging gains of $1.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2003 also reduced gross profit. Gross profit as a percent of net
sales increased to 0% from (5.2%) for the three months ended March 31, 2004
compared to the same period for 2003.

LAYERS

      Effective July 1, 2003, we consolidated MoArk as required by FIN 46 and
presented the business as our layers segment in our financial statements. Prior
periods were not restated. Prior to July 1, 2003, MoArk was accounted for under
the equity method; accordingly, sales and gross profit for the three months
ended March 31, 2003 were not included in our layers segment which is comprised
solely of our ownership of MoArk.

Net Sales

      Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were $175.4 million
compared to no net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2003 due to the
consolidation of MoArk under FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. On a stand-alone basis,
MoArk had net sales of $115.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
The increase in net sales was driven primarily by higher egg market prices. For
the three months ended March 31, 2004, the average market price of eggs per
dozen was $1.21 versus $.85 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Total
volume of shell eggs (in dozens) increased by 3.3 percent for the period ended
March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in the prior year.

                                       45
<PAGE>

Gross Profit

      Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $34.9 million
compared to no gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2003 due to the
consolidation of MoArk under FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. On a stand-alone basis,
MoArk had gross profit of $9.7 million for the three months ended March 31,
2003. Increased egg prices, increased volume in shell eggs and savings from
cost-control initiatives resulted in MoArk's gross profit increase. An
unrealized hedging gain of $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
2004 compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, also increased
gross profit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

OVERVIEW

      We rely on cash from operations, borrowings under our bank facilities and
bank term debt, and other institutionally-placed funded debt as the main sources
for financing working capital requirements, additions to property, plant and
equipment as well as acquisitions and investments in joint ventures. Other
sources of funding consist of leasing arrangements, a receivables securitization
and the sale of non-strategic assets.

      Total long-term debt, including the current portion, was $952.3 million as
of March 31, 2004 compared to $1,073.2 million as of December 31, 2003. The
decrease was due to term debt repayments of $126.5 million ($100 million of
proceeds from the expansion of our receivables securitization facility was used
to pay the term debt), somewhat offset by a net $4.7 million increase for
MoArk-related debt.

      Our primary sources of debt at March 31, 2004 included a $185 million
revolving credit facility (which was amended in January, 2004) and a $118.4
million institutional Term B loan, both of which are secured by the majority of
the Company's assets. In addition, we have $175 million in secured notes, $350
million in unsecured notes and $191 million of capital securities. For more
information, please see the caption below entitled "Principal Debt Facilities."

      At March 31, 2004, we also had long and short-term debt related to MoArk
of $84 million. Land O'Lakes does not provide any guarantees or support for
MoArk's debt. In addition, we had $37.7 million of other miscellaneous long-term
debt at March 31, 2004.

      During the fourth quarter of 2001, we entered into a $100 million
receivables securitization program to reduce overall financing costs. On March
31, 2004, we expanded the facility to $200 million. At March 31, 2004, $120
million was outstanding under this facility. In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, this facility was not reflected as debt on our
consolidated balance sheet. A more complete description of this accounts
receivable securitization program is found below under the caption, "Off-balance
Sheet Arrangements."

      Our principal liquidity requirements are to service our debt and meet our
working capital and capital expenditure needs. As of March 31, 2004, $136.6
million was available under our $185 million revolving credit facility for
working capital and general corporate purposes after giving effect to $48.4
million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduce availability. There was
no outstanding balance on the facility as of March 31, 2004. In addition, at
March 31, 2004, we had available cash on hand of $21.5 million, excluding an
additional $20 million in cash held in escrow to support the capital lease
financing of Cheese and Protein International Total equities as of March 31,
2004 were $930.9 million.

      We expect that funds from operations and available borrowings under our
revolving credit facility and receivables securitization facility will provide
sufficient working capital to operate our business, to make expected capital
expenditures and to meet liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve
months, including debt service on our term debt, the revolving credit
facilities, the 9% senior secured notes and our 8 3/4% senior unsecured notes.

                                       46
<PAGE>

      We expect total capital expenditures to be approximately $100 million in
2004, of which approximately $30 million relates to the Phase II installation at
CPI's Tulare, California facility. Of such amounts, we currently estimate that a
minimum range of $35 million to $45 million of ongoing maintenance capital
expenditures will be required. We had $20.6 million in capital expenditures for
the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $16.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2003.

CASH FLOWS

The following table summarizes the key elements for our cash flows for the
following periods:

Net cash used by financing activities................         (167.8)               (52.9)
</TABLE>

      Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased
by $39.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same
period for 2003. The increase was largely due to improved net earnings of $46.9
million. Working capital requirements increased cash flow by $108.1 million
primarily in our seed and dairy foods segments. The increase in seed was due to
lower receivable balances at March 31, 2004 compared to March 31, 2003 as more
customers were prepaying for products. The increase in dairy foods was due to
rising commodity prices which increased payables more than inventory valuations.
Partially offsetting these increases were a non-cash change to equity in
earnings of $18.4 million and a decrease in legal settlement proceeds of $101.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2003. Legal settlement proceeds totaled $4.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $105.6 million for the same period
in 2003.

      Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities increased
$16.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2003. The increase was due to proceeds from the
divestiture of a business of $7.5 million received in the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and a $7.0 million increase in dividends received from
investments in affiliated companies, primarily investments held by MoArk.

         Financing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, our
financing activities resulted in a decrease in cash flow of $114.9 million.
Payments on Term A and Term B loans were $65.3 million higher for the three
months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period for 2003. MoArk debt
payments, net of debt acquired, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were
$16.8 million. Moark was not consolidated in our financial statements for the
three months ended March 31, 2003. In 2004, we also paid $4.0 million for debt
issuance costs related to senior secured notes issued December of 2003 and for
an amendment of our senior bank facilities in January of 2004. For the three
months ended March 31, 2004, we had no borrowings from our revolving credit
facility, whereas for the same period in 2003 we borrowed $18.5 million against
this facility.

PRINCIPAL DEBT FACILITIES

      The principal term loans consisted of a syndicated Term A loan facility
with a final maturity date of October 10, 2006, and a syndicated Term B loan
facility with a final maturity of October 10, 2008. During the three months
ended March 31, 2004, we made prepayments of $92.5 million on the Term A loan
and $34.0 million on the Term B loan. The Term A loan was prepayable at any time
without penalty and was completely paid off with these prepayments. At March 31,
2004, the Term B loan had a remaining balance of $118.4 million.

</TABLE>

      Our $250.0 million revolving credit facility was scheduled to terminate on
June 28, 2004. In January 2004, we completed an amendment to this facility.
Under the amendment, the lenders have committed to make advances and issue
letters of credit until January, 2007, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $185
million, subject to a borrowing base limitation. The amendment also increases
the amount available for the issuance of letters of credit under the revolving
facility from $50 million to $75 million.

      Borrowings under the term loan and the revolving credit facility bear
interest at variable rates (either LIBOR or an Alternative Base Rate) plus
applicable margins. The margins are dependent upon Land O'Lakes leverage ratio
in the case of the revolving credit facility. The margin on the Term B loan is
fixed. As of March 31, 2004, the Term B loan interest rate was 4.59%.

      The Term B loan facility is prepayable with a penalty of 1% through
October 10, 2004 and no penalty thereafter. The facility is subject to mandatory
prepayments, subject to certain limited exceptions, in an amount equal to (1)
50% of excess cash flow, as defined in the facility agreement, of Land O'Lakes
and the restricted subsidiaries measured annually following year end, (2) 100%
of the net cash proceeds of asset sales and dispositions of property of Land
O'Lakes and the restricted subsidiaries, to the extent not reinvested, (3) 100%
of any casualty or condemnation receipts by Land O'Lakes and the restricted
subsidiaries, to the extent not used to repair or replace assets, (4) 100% of
joint venture dividends or distributions received by Land O'Lakes or the
restricted subsidiaries, to the extent that they relate to the sale of property,
casualty or condemnation receipts, or the issuance of any equity interest in the
joint venture, (5) 100% of net cash proceeds from the sale of inventory or
accounts receivable in a securitization transaction to the extent cumulative
proceeds from such transactions exceed $100.0 million and (6) 100% of net cash
proceeds from the issuance of unsecured senior or subordinated indebtedness
issued by Land O'Lakes. In February 2004, we made a mandatory prepayment of
$26.5 million on Term A and Term B loans based on the excess cash flow
calculation for December 31, 2003. In March 2004, we made a mandatory prepayment
of $100 million on Term A and Term B loans due to additional cash received from
the expansion of our accounts receivable securitization.

      In December 2003, we issued $175 million of senior secured notes that
mature on December 15, 2010. Proceeds from the issuance were used to make
payments on the Term A loan of $122.5 million and on the Term B loan of $52.5
million. These notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 9% per annum, payable on
June 15 and December 15 each year. The notes are callable beginning in year four
at a redemption price of 104.5%. In year five, the redemption price is 102.25%.
The notes are callable at par beginning in year six.

      In November 2001, we issued $350 million of senior unsecured notes that
mature on November 15, 2011. Proceeds from the issuance were used to refinance
the Company in connection with the acquisition of Purina Mills. These notes bear
interest at a fixed rate of 8 3/4% per annum, payable on May 15 and November 15
each year. The notes are callable beginning in year six at a redemption price of
104.375%. In years seven and eight, the redemption price is 102.917% and
101.458%, respectively. The notes are callable at par beginning in year nine.

      In 1998, Capital Securities in an amount of $200 million were issued by
our trust subsidiary, and the net proceeds were used to acquire a junior
subordinated note of Land O'Lakes. The holders of the securities are entitled to
receive dividends at an annual rate of 7.45% until the securities mature in
2028. The payment terms of the Capital Securities correspond to the payment
terms of the junior subordinated debentures, which are the sole asset of the
trust subsidiary. Interest payments on the debentures can be deferred for up to
five years, and the obligations under the debentures are junior to all of our
debt. As of March 31, 2004, the outstanding balance of Capital Securities was
$190.7 million.

                                       48
<PAGE>

      In April and May 2004 we entered into three $50 million fixed-to-floating
interest rate swap agreements, designated as fair value hedges, in an effort to
return to historical exposure levels for floating interest rate debt. These
swaps mirror the terms of the 8 -3/4% notes and effectively convert $150 million
of such notes from a fixed 8.75% rate to an effective rate of LIBOR plus 385
basis points.

      The credit agreements relating to the term loan and revolving credit
facility and the indentures relating to the 8.75% senior unsecured notes and the
9.0% senior secured notes impose certain restrictions on us, including
restrictions on our ability to incur indebtedness, make payments to members,
make investments, grant liens, sell our assets and engage in certain other
activities. In addition, the credit agreements relating to the term loan and
revolving credit facility require us to maintain an interest coverage ratio and
a leverage ratio. Theses actual and required ratios for the periods indicated
below are as follows:

Required Leverage Ratio:
  Must be no greater than                  4.75 to 1              3.75 to 1
</TABLE>

      An amendment to the credit agreements in January 2004 increased the
required maximum leverage ratio from 3.75 to 1 to 4.75 to 1. The ratio steps
down to 4.5 to 1 for the December 31, 2004 calculation, 4.0 to 1 for the
December 31, 2005 calculation and to 3.75 to 1 for the December 31, 2006
calculation and thereafter.

      Indebtedness under the term loan and revolving credit facility is secured
by substantially all of the material assets of Land O'Lakes and its wholly-owned
domestic subsidiaries (other than LOL Finance Co. and LOLFC, LLC) and Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (other than LOL
Farmland Feed SPV, LLC), including real and personal property, inventory,
accounts receivable (other than those receivables which have been sold in
connection with our receivables securitization), intellectual property and other
intangibles. Indebtedness under the term loans and revolving credit facility is
also guaranteed by our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (other than LOL
Finance Co. and LOLFC, LLC) and Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed and its wholly-owned
domestic subsidiaries (other than LOL Farmland Feed SPV, LLC). The 9% senior
notes are secured by a second lien on essentially all of the assets which secure
the term loan and the revolving credit agreement, and are guaranteed by the same
entities. The 8 3/4% senior notes are unsecured but are guaranteed by the same
entities that guarantee the obligations under the term loan and revolving credit
facility.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

      In order to reduce overall financing costs, we entered into a revolving
receivables securitization program with CoBank in December 2001 for up to $100
million in advances against eligible receivables. Under this program, Land
O'Lakes, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC and Purina Mills, LLC sell feed, seed
and certain swine receivables to LOL Farmland Feed SPV, LLC, a limited purpose
wholly-owned subsidiary of Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed. This subsidiary is a
qualifying special purpose entity (QSPE) under applicable accounting rules. The
QSPE was established for the limited purpose of purchasing and obtaining
financing for these receivables. The transfers of the receivables to the QSPE
are structured as sales and, in accordance with applicable accounting rules,
these receivables are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheets of Land
O'Lakes Farmland Feed or Land O'Lakes. The QSPE purchases the receivables with a
combination of cash initially received from CoBank, equal to the present value
of eligible receivables multiplied by the agreed advance rate; and notes, equal
to the unadvanced present value of the receivables. Land O'Lakes and the other
receivables sellers are subject to credit risk related to the repayment of the
QSPE notes, which in turn is dependent upon the ultimate collection on the
QSPE's receivables pool. Accordingly, we have retained reserves for estimated
losses.

                                       49
<PAGE>

      On March 31, 2004, we completed an amendment to our receivables
securitization facility. Under the amendment, the facility was increased from
$100 million to $200 million. The amendment incorporates receivables generated
in our dairy foods segment. In addition, the amendment increases the facility's
term from one year to three years. Concurrently with the amendment, we applied
the incremental proceeds from the expansion to our outstanding senior bank
facilities, which included the mandatory payment in full of our Term A loan
facility and a partial repayment on our Term B loan facility. The amendment also
reduced the effective cost of the facility from LIBOR plus 175 basis points to
LIBOR plus 137.5 basis points. As of March 31, 2004, $120.0 million was drawn
under this securitization.

CAPITAL LEASES

      Cheese and Protein International (CPI), a consolidated joint venture of
Land O'Lakes, leases the real property, certain equipment and the buildings
relating to its cheese manufacturing and whey processing plant in Tulare,
California (the "Lease"). The Lease is accounted for as a capital lease in our
consolidated financial statements, and as of March 31, 2004 the lease balance
was $97.0 million. The Lease base term commenced on April 30, 2002 and expires
on the fifth anniversary, unless CPI requests, and the lessor approves, one or
more one-year base term extensions, which could extend the base term to no more
than ten years. We have entered into a Support Agreement in connection with the
Lease. Pursuant to this agreement, we can elect one of the following options in
the event CPI defaults on its obligations under the Lease: (i) assume the
obligations of CPI, (ii) purchase the leased assets, (iii) fully cash
collateralize the Lease, or (iv) nominate a replacement lessee to be approved by
the lessor. The lease agreement requires, among other things, that CPI maintain
certain financial ratios including minimum tangible net worth and a minimum
fixed charge coverage ratio, and complete certain capital expansion activities
by June 1, 2004. In addition, CPI is restricted as to borrowings and changes in
ownership.

      On March 28, 2003, the CPI lease agreement was amended. The amendment
postponed the measurement of the fixed charge coverage ratio until March 2005.
In addition, Land O'Lakes established a $20 million restricted cash account
(which may be replaced with a letter of credit, at our option) which supports
the lease. The restricted cash account or letter of credit would only be drawn
upon in the event of a CPI default, and would reduce amounts otherwise due under
the lease. This support requirement will be lifted when certain financial
targets are achieved by CPI.

      Our joint venture partner, Mitsui, has a put option for its remaining
interest, which can be exercised beginning on December 31, 2004 and which takes
effect up to nine months following such notice. The put allows Mitsui to sell
its entire remaining interest to us for $3.2 million, which we have reflected as
a liability on our financial statements. Mitsui may exercise the option earlier,
but only if certain specified actions are deliberately taken by CPI or Land
O'Lakes to Mitsui's material disadvantage. We do not expect that such a scenario
will occur. If we acquire Mitsui's remaining equity interest, and if we do not
replace Mitsui with another partner, CPI would become a restricted subsidiary
under the senior bank facilities at that time. As a restricted subsidiary under
the senior bank facilities, CPI's on-balance sheet debt and income or loss would
be included in the covenant calculations for our senior bank facilities.
Further, as a restricted subsidiary under the senior bank facilities, CPI would
be required to guarantee our senior bank facilities, the 8 3/4% senior unsecured
notes and the 9% senior secured notes.

      MoArk, a consolidated joint venture of Land O'Lakes, had capital leases at
March 31, 2004 of $11.3 million for land, buildings, machinery and equipment at
various locations. Land O'Lakes does not provide any guarantees or support for
any of MoArk's capital leases.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

      In May, 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both
Liability and Equity." The statement establishes standards for how an issuer
classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of
both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial
instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some
circumstances). The statement was effective for us as of January 1, 2004. The
adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on us.

      In December 2003, the FASB revised Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits." The statement revises the disclosures about pension

                                       50
<PAGE>

and other postretirement benefit plans. It requires additional disclosure
regarding changes in benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets. The
statement was effective for the Company as of December 31, 2003. We adopted this
Statement for the year ended December 31, 2003, and have provided the interim
disclosures in Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 10, Pension and Other
Postretirement Plans.

      On January 12, 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 106-1,
"Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription
Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003" (the "Act"). The position
permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a
prescription drug benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for
the effects of the Act. Regardless of whether a sponsor elects that deferral,
the position requires certain disclosures pending further consideration of the
underlying accounting issues. We have chosen to defer accounting for the benefit
until the FASB issues final accounting guidance due to various uncertainties
related to this legislation and the appropriate accounting. Our measures of the
accumulated projected benefit obligation and net periodic postretirement benefit
costs as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2004 do not reflect the
effect of the Act.

      For a discussion of additional factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed
in our forward-looking statements, see the discussion of risk factors set forth
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004 the Company did not experience
significant changes in market risk exposures that materially affect the
quantitative and qualitative disclosures presented in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

      In April and May 2004, we entered into three $50 million fixed-to-floating
interest rate swap agreements, designated as fair value hedges, in an effort to
return to historical exposure levels for floating interest rate debt.

                                       52

These swaps mirror the terms of the 8.75% notes and effectively convert $150
million of such notes from a fixed 8.75% rate to an effective rate of LIBOR plus
385 basis points.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

      (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

      As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company conducted
an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation,
the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules
and forms.

      (b) Changes in internal controls.

      There were no significant changes made in our internal controls during the
period covered by this report or in other factors that could significantly
affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation and there were
no corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material
weaknesses.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      We are currently and from time to time involved in litigation incidental
to the conduct of our business. The damages claimed against us in some of these
cases are substantial. On February 24, 2004, Cache La Poudre Feeds, LLC
("Cache") filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District
of Colorado against the Company, Land O'Lakes Farmland Feed LLC and certain
named officers thereof claiming trademark infringement with respect to certain
animal feed sales under the Profile trade name. Cache seeks damages of at least
$132.8 million, which, it claims, is the amount the named entities generated in
gains, profits and advantages from using the Profile trade name. In response to
Cache's complaint, the Company denied any wrongdoing and pursued certain
counterclaims against Cache relating to, among other things, trademark
infringement, and other claims against Cache for, among other things, defamation
and libel. In addition, the Company believes that Cache's calculation of the
Company's gains, profits and advantages allegedly generated from the use of the
Profile trade name is grossly overstated. The Company believes that sales
revenue generated from the sale of products carrying the Profile trade name are
immaterial. Although the amount of any loss that may result from this matter
cannot be ascertained with certainty, we do not currently believe that it will
result in a loss material to our consolidated financial condition, future
results of operations or cash flow.

      In 2003, several lawsuits were filed against the Company by Ohio alpaca
producers in which it is alleged that the Company manufactured and sold animal
feed that caused the death of, or damage to, certain of the producers' alpacas.
It is possible that additional lawsuits or claims relating to this matter could
be brought against the Company. Although the amount of any loss that may result
from these matters cannot be ascertained with certainty, we do not currently
believe that, in the aggregate, they will result in losses material to our
consolidated financial condition, future results of operations or cash flow.

      In December 2002, we reached settlements with defendants whom we claimed
had illegally fixed the prices for various vitamin and methionine products we
purchased. As a result of the settlements, we received proceeds of approximately
$119.5 million in 2003. In February 2004, we received an additional $4.5 million
of proceeds. When combined with the settlement proceeds received from similar
claims settled since the commencement of these actions, we have received
cumulatively approximately $188 million from the settling defendants. These
claims that have been settled represent the vast majority of our vitamin and
methionine purchases.

      In a letter dated January 18, 2001, we were identified by the United
States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as a potentially responsible
party for clean-up costs in connection with hazardous substances and wastes at

                                       53
<PAGE>

the Hudson Refinery Superfund Site in Cushing, Oklahoma. The letter invited us
to enter into negotiations with the EPA for the performance of a remedial
investigation and feasibility study at the site and also demanded that we
reimburse the EPA approximately $8.9 million for remediation expenses already
incurred at the site. In March 2001, we responded to the EPA denying any
responsibility. No further communication has been received from the EPA.
