                      INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Board of Directors
Top Air Manufacturing, Inc.
Parkersburg, Iowa

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Top Air Manufacturing, Inc.
as of May 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of income,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended May 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Top Air Manufacturing, Inc.
as of May 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years ended May 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of business:  The Company's operations consist of the design,
-------------------
manufacture and sale of agricultural equipment and sprayer repair and
replacement parts to dealers located primarily in twelve midwestern states on
credit terms that the Company establishes for individual customers.

Significant accounting policies:
--------------------------------

  Revenue recognition:  Sales of all products are recognized as goods are
  --------------------
  shipped.

  Cash and cash equivalents:  For purposes of reporting cash flows, the
  --------------------------
  Company considers all money market funds and savings accounts to be cash
  equivalents.

  Inventories:  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in,
  ------------
  first-out method) or market.

  Property and equipment and depreciation:  Property and equipment is carried
  ----------------------------------------
  at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed by the straight-
  line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

  Income taxes:  Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby
  -------------
  deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences
  and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are
  recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are
  the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
  their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance
  when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some
  portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred
  tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax
  laws and rates on the date of enactment.

  Research and development:  Research and development costs are charged to
  -------------------------
  operations as they are incurred.
