4. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. 
Actual results may differ from those estimates.

5.  Investments in and Receivables from Unconsolidated affiliates.

The Company accounts for its investments in three unconsolidated affiliates
using the equity method.  The Company's share of earnings and management fees
was $1,776,000 and $1,165,000 and $3,547,000 and $2,410,000 respectively for 
the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended September 28, 1996 and September 30, 1995.

6.  Insurance Proceeds Receivable

<Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
September 28, 1996


Financial Condition

   While remaining high the Company's debt stabilized during the quarter while
at the same time the Company replaced an existing construction term loan with a
new $25M term loan to finance the new processing plant at Pine Mountain Valley
and the Revolving Credit facility was increased to $35,000,000 to provide
liquidity in light of the record high grain prices experienced during the
summer.  As of September 28, 1996, $22M was advanced against the revolver.  
High borrowing levels were necessary to finance higher working capital levels
required by high cost of feed grains.

Results of Operations

   Sales for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended September 28, 1996 increased 
19.1% and 5.5% respectively as compared to the same periods of a year ago.
This increase is due mainly to the Pine Mountain facility operating at full 
one shift capacity this quarter.  It was out of production for the entire 
second quarter of a year ago due to a fire.

   Gross margins declined by .42% and 3.05% for the quarter and 6 months
respectively and this is due primarily to record high grain cost during the
quarter and 6 months periods.  Feed averaged 40.3% higher for the quarter 
ended September 28, 1996 than for the same period a year ago and 40.7% higher
for the 6 month period ended September 28, 1996 than for the same period of a
year ago.  This increase was somewhat offset by higher market prices with 
whole bird markets averaging 11.8% higher for the quarter than a year ago and
13.7% higher for the six month period as compared to a year ago.  The prices 
for deboned product have not risen as significantly.  Consequently the Company
did not benefit to the full extent of the increase in the above mentioned 
market prices.

Selling, Delivery and General and Administrative Expenses

   This category of expense increased by 7.8% and is the result of increased
storage cost due to increased frozen product production for domestic and 
export sales which due to shipping schedule requires higher inventory levels.

Interest Expense

   Interest expense increased by 235.7% and 237.4% for the quarter and six 
month period respectively ended September 28, 1996 as compared to the same
periods of last year and is attributable to the elevated debt levels caused by
re-building the Pine Mountain Plant and higher working capital needs, due to
increased inventory levels.

Other Income

   Other income declined by $4.3 million for the quarter and $3.8 for the six
months due to the inclusion of a gain from insurance recovery as a result of 
the fire at the Company's Pine Mountain plant. Other income includes 
management fees and income from unconsolidated affiliates.

Income Taxes

   The benefit provision for income taxes reflects a credit at statutory rates
for the loss currently reported.
