  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


OPERATIONS

Net sales and other operating income increased 23 percent for
the quarter and 14 percent for the nine months compared to a
year ago due primarily to higher average selling prices of most
processed products and to a lesser extent volume increases,
including sales of recently acquired companies.

Gross profits increased to $286 million from $265 million for
the quarter reflecting gross profits of recently acquired
companies and increased gross profits of oilseed processing
operations which experienced better market conditions resulting
in favorable processing margins.  For the nine months, gross
profits decreased from $850 million to $831 million due
principally to the negative effect on operations of the
widespread Midwest flooding and to the effect of commodity price
changes on LIFO inventory valuations.  These decreases were
partially offset by increased gross profits from oilseed
processing operations and recently acquired companies.  The
effect of commodity price changes on LIFO inventory valuations
decreased gross profit $5 million in the quarter and $46 million
in the nine months compared to increased gross profit of $5
million and $4 million for the comparable periods of a year ago.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 13
percent to $93 million for the quarter and increased 9 percent
to $267 million for the nine months compared to a year ago
primarily reflecting costs of recently acquired companies and
general cost increases.

The decrease in other income for the quarter and nine months
resulted primarily from increased interest expense due to higher
levels of long-term debt borrowings.  For the quarter, this
decrease was partially offset by increased gains on marketable
securities transactions.

Income taxes for the quarter increased due to higher pretax
earnings and the increase in the United States federal corporate
income tax rate to 35 percent.  For the nine months, income
taxes decreased due to lower pretax earnings.  This decrease was
partially offset by the aforementioned income tax rate increase
which also resulted in increased income tax reserves and a non-
recurring income tax charge of $14 million.  The effects of the
change in the federal corporate income tax rate increased the
Company's effective income tax rate to 34 percent for the
quarter and 37 percent for the nine months compared to a rate of
33 percent for the comparable periods of a year ago.

Results for fiscal 1993 have been restated for the cumulative
effect of the adoption of FASB Statements No. 106 and No. 109
resulting in a net credit of $33 million for the nine months
ended March 31, 1993.  Results for the first three quarters of
fiscal 1993 have also been restated, net of tax, for the current
year effect of the accounting change for FASB Statement No. 106.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

and marketable securities net of short-term debt decreased $726
million to $2.0 billion, working capital decreased $360 million
to $2.6 billion and shareholders' equity decreased $23 million
to $4.9 billion.  These decreases principally reflect
investments in property, plant and equipment expansions,
business acquisitions, and purchases of the Company's common
stock.  The Company's ratio of long-term liabilities to total
capital at March 31, 1994 was approximately 27 percent.
