                NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               June 30, 1995
                                 (Unaudited)

Note 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the DNA Plant Technology Corporation ("the Company"), without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying
unaudited, consolidated financial statements contain adjustments, all of
which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the
Company's financial position as of June 30, 1995 and the results of its
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 and
its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to be
consistent with the current period presentation.

     Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full
fiscal year.


Note 2 - EXIT CARROT PROCESSING

     During 1994, the Company discontinued processing its own carrots and
shut down its carrot processing plant.  As a result of the plant closure,
all carrot processing personnel were terminated in the fourth quarter of
1994.  The Company's current plans are either to (a) enter a partnership
arrangement with another carrot processor in which the Company would
contribute its carrot processing equipment to the partnership or (b)
dispose of the equipment by selling it to a third party.

     During 1994, the Company recorded a charge of $2.4 million consisting
of a $1.6 million non-cash charge to write down the equipment to estimated
net realizable value, a $.5 million charge to write down packaging material
and seed inventory, a $.2 million charge for lease payments, and
$.1 million for severance and termination benefits.  This charge is based
on the assumption that the Company will be able to enter into a partnership
arrangement with another carrot processor where the Company would
contribute its carrot processing equipment at the net book value of 
$3.2 million and sublease its facility at the current monthly lease amount. 
As a result of experiencing delays in closing a partnership agreement,
during the six month period ended June 30, 1995 the Company recorded
additional charges of approximately $.4 million for estimated lease

payments to be incurred prior to finalizing a partnership arrangement.  The
ultimate charge for the plant closure is dependent on the outcome of
certain future events, including negotiations regarding the carrot
processing partnership referred to above. The ultimate resolution of this
matter may result in additional charges, currently estimated to be up to
$1.9 million, being recognized.  


Note 3 - SALE OF FROST TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION 

     In February 1995, the Company sold the stock of Frost Technology
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary, to a third party for $1.3 million
of consideration.  The assets of this subsidiary consisted of technology
rights and the subsidiary had no operating activities.  This transaction
resulted in net revenues of $1.1 million which are recorded as investment
and royalty income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Operations.  The Company received $1.0 million of the consideration in the
first quarter of 1995.  The remaining $.3 million is due
September 30, 1995, and is recorded as an other current asset in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.


Note 4 - CONSOLIDATION AND RELOCATION OF FACILITIES

     During 1994, the Company relocated its headquarters and consolidated
its research operations from its New Jersey facility to its research
facility in Oakland, California.  This consolidation and relocation was a
further step in the Company's efforts to consolidate its operations,
eliminate duplication of staff and facilities, and focus primarily on the
development and marketing of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables.  In
1994, the Company incurred $2.0 million of non-recurring costs to
accomplish this relocation and consolidation.  During the six months ended
June 30, 1995 the Company incurred $70,000 of costs associated with this
consolidation and relocation.

Note 6 - SALE OF COMMON STOCK

     During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Company, in private
placement transactions pursuant to Regulations D and S of the Securities
Act of 1933, has sold 1,255,000 shares of the Company's common stock for
net proceeds, after commissions and expenses, of $2.2 million.

Note 7 - SALE OF PREFERRED STOCK

     During the second quarter of 1995 the Company sold 750 shares of
Series B and 750 shares of Series C preferred stock for $1,000 per share.  
As a result of the sales, at June 30, 1995 the Company had authorized,
issued, and outstanding 750 shares of Series B and 750 shares of Series C,
$.01 par value convertible preferred stock.  Each share of Series B and
Series C preferred stock is convertible at a per share rate that varies
depending on the market price of the common stock at the time of the
conversion.  Dividends on the Series B and Series C preferred stock at an
annual rate of $100 per share are cumulative and payable quarterly when and
as declared by the Company's Board of Directors.  The liquidation value of
each share of Series B and Series C preferred stock is $1,000.

Note 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In May 1995, a lawsuit was brought against the Company by Monsanto
Company ("Monsanto") in the United States District Court for the District
of Delaware.  Monsanto alleged that the Company had infringed two of
Monsanto's United States patents relating to the use of promoter and gene
marker technology in plants.  During the third quarter the Company and
Monsanto agreed to settle the legal action for an immaterial amount to be
paid in equal annual installments over a four year period beginning
January 1996.
   
     During the third quarter the Company entered into an agreement with  a
consultant to privately place up to 9,700,000 restricted shares of common
stock of the Company together with warrants entitling the holders to
purchase an additional 5,050,000 shares of common stock at $2.50/share. The
estimated net proceeds of such proposed placements (if all securities are
sold) will be approximately $9.1 million.  The restriction prohibits 
these shares from being publicly traded until April 1996.  The shares of 
stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants are subject to shareholder 
approval on or prior to June 30, 1996; if shareholders do not approve the 
warrants, the Company will be obligated to redeem the warrants at $.25 per 
warrant.  As part of the compensation to the consultant who is assisting 
the Company in placing the stock, the Company will grant the consultant 
options to purchase up to 1,475,000 shares of common stock at a price 
related to the market price on the final closing date. 

     Under this agreement and as of the date of this filing, the Company
has privately placed 2,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's common
stock together with warrants to purchase 1,200,000 shares of its common
stock and received net proceeds after commissions and expenses of
$1.9 million.  There can be no assurance that the balance of the placement
will be consummated.
