Item 8.01OTHER EVENTS.

On December 3, 2009, as a result of a transaction between Link Acquisition Company LLC (“Link”) (a wholly owned subsidiary of Minn-Dak Farmers Cooperative [the “Company”]) and Wyoming Sugar Company LLC (“WSC”) of Worland, Wyoming, the Company purchased certain assets from WSC. As a result of this transaction the USDA approved the transfer to the Company of all of the Domestic Beet Sugar Allotment that was assigned to WSC.  The transfer was made by the USDA pursuant to the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, as amended, regarding the transfer of beet sugar allocations. 

On February 1, 2010 the USDA approved the transfer of a portion of the Company’s Domestic Beet Sugar Allotment, equal to 0.8373168 percent of the Domestic Beet Sugar Allotment, to another beet sugar processor, Wyoming Sugar Growers LLC. The net result of these two transactions is an increase in the Company’s beet sugar allocation for 2009 and later crop years.  For 2009, the Company’s allocation will be increased by approximately 26,750 short tons raw value.

The addition of permanent Domestic Beet Sugar allocation is expected to provide the Company with an improved foundation for the marketing of its refined sugar in future years.
