ITEM 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Effective August 6, 2003, Farmland consummated the sale of our approximate 71% interest in Farmland National Beef Packing Co. ("FNBPC"), to our minority partner, U.S. Premium Beef ("USPB"). FNBPC is the nation's fourth largest beef packer, processing 3.8 billion pounds of beef per year. FNBPC's assets include beef packing plants in Liberal and Dodge City, Kansas, as well as case-ready meat facilities in Hummels Wharf, Pennsylvania and Moultrie, Georgia. The sale of our interest in FNBPC was in conjunction with our reorganization proceedings and was subject to approval by the bankruptcy court. An auction was held for these assets during July 2003 and USPB's bid was approved by the Court on July 21, 2003. This transaction resulted in the purchase of our interest in FNBPC by the buyers for consideration, in aggregate, of approximately $253.8 million in cash, of which $21.8 million is recorded as an accounts receivable. The sales proceeds were used to repay our remaining $0.7 million bank debt as required under the terms of both our DIP Credit Facility and our Pre-petition Credit Facility. All additional funds will be held as cash reserves until such time as our plan of reorganization is confirmed by the bankruptcy court.

ITEM 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits

The following pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented to illustrate the effects of the sale of our beef marketing assets (the "Disposition") on the historical financial position and operating results of Farmland.

The following pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet of Farmland at May 31, 2003 gives effect to the Disposition as if it had occurred on that date. The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended May 31, 2002 and 2003 and for the years ended August 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 give effect to the Disposition as if it had occurred as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

The pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, Farmland's historical consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes. Those financial statements are included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended May 31, 2003 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2002.

The pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented only for informational purposes. As a result, the accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are also not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations of Farmland that would have occurred had the Disposition been consummated as of the dates indicated.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET

(a)	Reflects Farmland's historical financial position at May 31, 2003.
(b)	Pro forma adjustments to record the Disposition as of May 31, 2003 reflect:
	1)	The sale of our interest in FNBPC which is compromised of all the assets and liabilities of FNBPC, to USPB for cash;
	2)	A receivable for approximately $21.8 million for a post-closing payment that represents our pro-rata share of theFNBPC partners' distribution for the quarter ending August 31, 2003. This amount represents a preliminary estimate and will not be finalized until after the quarter has been completed;
	3)	Reversal of book/tax timing differences related to assets sold to and liabilities assumed by the buyers, largely offset by an increase in the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets;
	4)	Under terms of our DIP and Pre-petition Credit Facilities, we are required to use the net sales proceeds to reduce outstanding borrowings under these facilities, which amounted to $20.4 million at May 31, 2003;
	5)	The increase in equity represents the gain we recognized on consummation of this transaction; and
	6)	The proceeds from disposition of $232.0 million, net of $20.4 million paydown of outstanding borrowings under our DIP and Pre-Petition Credit Facilities, and a reclassification of $6.8 million from checks and drafts outstanding.
