                              By order of the Board of Directors,



                              MARSHALL L. TUTUN, Secretary

March 31, 1994                       SEABOARD CORPORATION

                         PROXY STATEMENT
                  ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
                          APRIL 25, 1994

                                                   March 31, 1994

    This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the
solicitation of Proxies to be used at the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of Seaboard Corporation (the "Company") to be held
on April 25, 1994, and at any adjournment thereof, for the
purposes set forth in the foregoing Notice of Annual Meeting.

    The close of business on Monday, March 7, 1994, has been
fixed as the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting, and at
any adjournment thereof.

    This Proxy Statement is first being sent to stockholders on
or about March 31, 1994.  The consolidated financial statements
of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993,
together with corresponding consolidated financial statements for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1992, are contained in the
Annual Report which was mailed to stockholders herewith.

    Proxies in the form enclosed are solicited by the Board of
Directors of the Company.  Any stockholder giving a Proxy in the
enclosed form has the power to revoke it at any time before it is
exercised.  A stockholder's right to revoke his or her Proxy is
not limited by, or subject to, compliance with any specified
formal procedure.  He or she may revoke his or her Proxy by
attending the meeting and voting in person.  A Proxy in such
form, if received in time for voting and not revoked, will be
voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the direction of
the stockholder.  Where a choice is not so specified, the shares
represented by the Proxy will be voted "for" the election of the
nominees for director listed herein, and "for" ratification of
the selection of KPMG Peat Marwick as independent auditors of the
Company.  A stockholder marking the Proxy "abstain" will not be
counted as voting in favor of the particular proposal from which
the stockholder has elected to abstain.  If a broker indicates on
a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority as to
certain shares to vote on a particular proposal (a "broker non-
vote"), these shares will not be counted as voting in favor of
such proposal.  A plurality of the votes cast is necessary to
elect members of the Board of Directors.  Accordingly,
abstentions or broker non-votes as to the election of directors
will not affect the election of the candidates receiving the
plurality of votes.  The other proposals set forth herein require
the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present at the
meeting.  The Board of Directors does not know of any matters
which will be brought before the meeting other than those
specifically set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting.  However,
if any other matter properly comes before the meeting, it is
intended that the persons named in the enclosed form of Proxy, or
their substitutes acting thereunder, will vote on such matter in
accordance with their best judgment.

     The Company will bear all expenses in connection with the
solicitation of Proxies, including preparing, assembling, and
mailing of the Proxy Statement.

       The Company had 1,487,519.75 shares of Common Stock, $1.00
par value, outstanding and entitled to vote as of March 7, 1994.
A majority, or 743,760 of such shares, constitutes a quorum for
the Annual Meeting.



                        PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

     The following table sets forth the number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock beneficially owned by stockholders owning
more than five percent of such Common Stock as of January 31,
1994.  Unless otherwise indicated, all beneficial ownership
consists of sole voting and sole investment power.

     Name and Address            Amount of           Percent

Short Hills, New Jersey


(1)  Mr. H. Harry Bresky, Director of the Company, his brother,
     Otto Bresky, Jr., and sister, Marjorie B. Shifman, own and
     have sole voting power over 81,358 shares, 83,771 shares and
     19,517 shares, respectively, of the common stock of Seaboard
     Flour Corporation.  These individuals and other members of
     the Bresky family, including trusts created for their
     benefit, have beneficial ownership of 224,729 shares, or
     95.1%, of the common stock of Seaboard Flour Corporation.
     Such family members in addition have beneficial ownership of
     a total of 34,515 shares, or 2.3%, of the Company's Common
     Stock which is not included in the amount owned by Seaboard
     Flour Corporation.  Because of such ownership of common
     stock of Seaboard Flour Corporation by the Bresky family,
     Mr. H. Harry Bresky may be deemed to have indirect
     beneficial ownership of the Common Stock of the Company held
     by Seaboard Flour Corporation.

(2)  Beneficial ownership by Heine Securities Corporation and
     Michael F. Price is based on a Schedule 13G that was filed
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 8,
     1994 and includes 1,550 shares of the Company owned directly
     or indirectly by Michael F. Price.  Mr. Price is the
     President of Heine Securities Corporation, in which capacity
     he is deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the
     balance of the 93,450 shares reported herein.

                               
     Based solely on a review of the copies of reports furnished
to the Company and written representation that no other reports
were required, the Company believes that during fiscal 1993, all
reports of ownership as required under Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for Directors and/or Executive
Officers of the Company and/or beneficial owners of more than ten
percent of the Company's Common Stock have been timely filed with
the exception of the Annual Statement of Beneficial Ownership
(Form 5) filing for Mr. Robert J. McDonough.  This filing, which
was made approximately fourteen days later than required,
reflects the acquisition of 200 shares of the Company's Common
Stock in November 1993, which acquisition had not previously been
reported in a filing on Statement of Changes in Beneficial
Ownership (Form 4).

                   ITEM 1:  ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

    The Board of Directors has fixed the number of Directors at
four.  Unless otherwise specified, Proxies will be voted in favor
of the election as Directors of the following four persons for a

Bresky has served as a Director continuously since 1959, and was
reelected by the stockholders at the last annual meeting.  Mr.
Rodrigues has served as a Director since 1990, and was reelected
by the stockholders at the last annual meeting.  Messrs. Robert
J. McDonough and Thomas J. Shields have served as Directors since
1992 and were reelected by the stockholders at the last annual
meeting.  There are no arrangements or understandings between any
nominee and any other person pursuant to which such nominee was
nominated.  As of January 31, 1994, the four nominees
beneficially owned securities of the Company in the amounts
shown:

(1)  The number of shares shown in this table does not include
     indirect beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Company
     attributable to Director ownership of Seaboard Flour
     Corporation stock as more fully described under "Principal
     Stockholders" above.  Mr. H. Harry Bresky has record and
     beneficial ownership of 101,785 shares (43.1%) of the
     outstanding common stock of Seaboard Flour Corporation as of
     January 31, 1994.

(2)  These shares exclude 5,285 shares held by Mr. H. Harry
     Bresky's wife as to which Mr. Bresky disclaims any
     beneficial interest.



    In case any person or persons named herein for election as
Directors are not available for election at the Annual Meeting,
Proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee or nominees, as
well as for the balance of those named herein.  Management has no
reason to believe that any of the nominees for the election as
Director will be unavailable.


         COMMITTEES AND MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

    The Audit Committee consists of three members: Messrs. Robert
J. McDonough, Thomas J. Shields and Joe E. Rodrigues, all of whom
are nominees for Director listed herein.  The primary function of
the Audit Committee is to ensure the effectiveness of the
Company's internal control structure and financial reporting
process.  The Company has no nominating or compensation
committee.



                              

    The Board of Directors held four meetings in fiscal 1993 and
two telephonic meetings.  All other actions of the Board of
Directors were taken by unanimous written consent as needed.  The
Audit Committee held one meeting in fiscal 1993.  Each Director
attended more than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of
meetings of the Board of Directors and the total number of
meetings held by all committees of the Board of which he served.

    Each non-employee Director receives $5,000 quarterly and an
additional $1,500 per meeting of the Audit Committee of the
Board.

                         RETIREMENT PLANS

    Effective January 1, 1994, benefits became available under
the Seaboard Corporation Executive Retirement Plan for a select
group of officers and managers which provides an annual amount
payable to a participant at normal retirement equal to 2.5% of a
participant's annual compensation (total salary and bonus
received in a given year), not to exceed $300,000 (with such
amount to be increased each year commencing January 1, 1995 to an
amount which is 5% greater than the amount in effect on the first
day of the preceding year), for each year of service with the
Company commencing on or after January 1, 1994, and which plan
will permit participants to elect a lump sum distribution method
of payment.  As of January 31, 1994, each of the individuals
named in the Summary Compensation Table was 100% vested under the
defined benefit plans which were frozen in 1982 and 1993.  The
table does not include amounts payable under these predecessor
defined benefit plans under which at normal retirement Messrs. H.
Bresky, Rodrigues, Miller, Hoffman and S. Bresky will receive
annual estimated benefits of $126,554, $63,562, $75,181, $32,604
and $33,564 respectively.  The following table illustrates the
estimated annual benefits payable upon retirement to persons in
specified compensation and years-of-service classifications in
the plan which commenced in 1994.  Such benefits do not contain
an offset for Social Security benefits.  Since the existing
Executive Retirement Plan went into effect on January 1, 1994,
all eligible employees, including the Chief Executive Officer and
the four highest paid Executive Officers, have zero years of
credited service for benefit accrual under the newly adopted plan
for select managers and officers.

*As discussed above, benefits paid under the Executive Retirement
Plan are based upon a maximum of $300,000 in annual compensation
for each year of service with the Company plus an annual
increment of 5%.

    In addition to the Executive Retirement Plan, Mr. Rodrigues
is entitled to a supplementary annual pension equal to 4% of his
total compensation (base compensation and all prescribed
allowances and bonuses) during his employment with the Company.
As of January 1, 1994, Mr. Rodrigues was entitled to receive

                   REPORT ON COMPENSATION

    The following information is to provide shareholders and
other interested parties with a clear understanding of the
Company's philosophy regarding executive compensation and to
provide insight behind fundamental compensation decisions.

    The Company maintains the philosophy that the determination
of compensation for its Executive Officers by the Board of
Directors is directly and materially performance based with a
recognition that these officers are responsible for implementing
the Company's long-term strategic objectives.  The Company's
goals with respect to its executive compensation policies
described below are to attract and retain top executive
employees.

    Base compensation including increases thereto for Executive
Officers as presented in the Summary Compensation Table on page 5
is determined by the following factors:


                                  
    Competitive salary ranges at or above the 50th percentile of
    comparable sized firms in the manufacturing industry.  Because
    the industries in which Seaboard most actively operates (food
    and marine transportation) do not correlate precisely with any
    one category in the national salary surveys utilized by the
    Company, the compensation peer group is not the same as the
    peer group index in the Comparison of Five-Year Cumulative
    Total Return graph included in this Proxy Statement.


    The state of the economy which includes the performance of
    companies in similar industries and such key economic factors
    as the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners ("CPI-W").


    The diversity and complexity of the Company's businesses.


    An assessment of corporate performance which includes such
    measures as revenue, profitability, return on assets, return
    on equity, cost containment, financial risk and achievement of
    non-financial strategic objectives.


    An assessment of the officer's performance based on various
    competency factors and the tracking of individual performance
    objectives.



     Except for promotion, significant change in responsibility,
or extraordinary performance, increases in executive compensation
are generally made within a range established each year on the
basis of economic factors, such as increases in the CPI-W or
costs of living (in 1994, 2.5 to 6%).  Increases in Mr. Bresky's
compensation are usually granted at the upper end of the range.
Increases in the compensation of other officers have generally
been established within the range by consideration of the
remaining factors outlined above, although the range may be
exceeded by up to 1% in cases of superior performance.  The
Company does not ascribe particular weights to any of the factors
in its consideration.

    As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. H. Harry Bresky's base
compensation is determined by a review of the Company's progress
in meeting its goals and objectives and a review of a top
management compensation survey prepared by an independent
consulting service.  An analysis of the data presented in this
survey shows that the typical base compensation for Chief
Executive Officers of manufacturing entities with similar
revenues is comparable at about the 50th percentile to the base
compensation paid to Mr. Bresky.

    Discretionary bonuses for Executive Officers including the
Chief Executive Officer are determined in accordance with an
executive bonus plan and an annual assessment of the Company's
financial performance and each officer's individual contribution
to that performance.  As approved by the Board of Directors, the
determination of the funding for the bonus pool is based on a
two-part formula.  The first part, referred to as "the basic



                              7
bonus," is computed as a ratio of sales by operating division to
total corporate sales.  The second part of the contribution,
referred to as "the supplemental bonus," is based on the return
on net assets employed in excess of 10% of the average assets
employed by the division, subject to a maximum cap determined
each year by the Board of Directors for each line of business.
Bonuses for those employees not associated with a particular
operating division are based on operating statistics for the
Company as a whole.  Furthermore, it is provided that no
Executive Officer may receive a bonus greater than 100% of his
base compensation.

    The foregoing report has been furnished by the Board of
Directors:

                         H. Harry Bresky
                         Joe E. Rodrigues

                        COMPANY PERFORMANCE

    The Securities and Exchange Commission requires a five-year
comparison of stock performance for the Company with that of an
appropriate broad equity market index and similar industry index.
The Company's Common Stock is traded on the American Stock
Exchange, and one appropriate comparison is with the American
Stock Exchange Market Value Index performance.  Because there is
no single industry index to compare stock performance, the Dow
Jones Food and Marine Transportation Industry Indices were chosen
as the second comparison, weighted by market capitalization.

    The following graph shows a five-year comparison of
cumulative total return for the Company, the American Stock
Exchange Market Value Index and an industry index comprised of
the Dow Jones Food and Marine Transportation Industry Indices
weighted by market capitalization for the five fiscal years
commencing December 31, 1988, and ending December 31, 1993:

     of the Dow Jones Food and Marine Transportation Industry
     Indices.

    The total cumulative return assumes that the value of the
investment in the Company's Common Stock and each index was $100
on December 31, 1988, and that all dividends were reinvested.

         DIRECTOR AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER LITIGATION

    In April 1990, a derivative action was commenced in Delaware
Chancery Court by a minority stockholder of the Company against
the Company, Seaboard Flour Corporation, and the three then
Directors of the Company, including Mr. H. Bresky, alleging
breaches of fiduciary duty by the Directors of the Company in
connection with three transactions with Seaboard Flour
Corporation, and seeking monetary damages and other relief.
Earlier this year, the Complaint was amended to accuse senior
management of various breaches of duty, including self-dealing.
The Company believes that the allegations of improper conduct by
senior management are totally without merit.
