Item 8.01 Other Events.

On March 5, 2013, ConAgra Foods, Inc. (the "Company") announced an agreement with Cargill, Incorporated ("Cargill"), and CHS Inc. ("CHS"), to form a joint venture to be known as Ardent Mills, which will combine the North American flour milling operations and related businesses operated through the ConAgra Mills division of the Company and the Horizon Milling joint venture of Cargill and CHS. The Company previously expected the transaction to close late in calendar year 2013 and now expects the transaction to be completed in the first quarter of calendar 2014. The Company has revised the timeline due to various reasons, including the ongoing regulatory review process and discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice.
