Board of Directors of Pilgrim&#146;s Pride Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) solicits
stockholders&#146; proxies in the accompanying form for use at the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders to be held on Wednesday, January&nbsp;25, 2006, at 11:00&nbsp;a.m.,
local time, at the Company&#146;s headquarters at 4845 U.S. Highway 271 N.,
Pittsburg, Texas and at any adjournments thereof (the &#147;Meeting&#148;).&#160; This Proxy Statement, the accompanying proxy

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
of November&nbsp;28, 2005, the record date for determining stockholders entitled
to notice of and to vote at the Meeting (the &#147;Record Date&#148;), the Company had
outstanding 66,555,773 shares of its common stock, $.01 par value per
share.&#160; The Company&#146;s Certificate of
Incorporation generally provides that holders of its common stock are entitled
to 20 votes for each share that has been continuously beneficially owned by
such holder on and after November&nbsp;21, 2003, subject to compliance with
certain procedures, and one vote for all other shares.&#160; Article&nbsp;Fourth of the Company&#146;s
Certificate of Incorporation and the voting procedures adopted thereunder
contain several provisions governing the voting power of the Company&#146;s common
stock, including a presumption that each share of common stock held in &#147;street&#148;
or &#147;nominee&#148; name or by a broker, clearing agency, voting trustee, bank, trust
company or other nominee shall be presumed to have been acquired after November&nbsp;21,
2003, and accordingly to be entitled to only one vote per share, unless the
holder furnished the Company with proof to the contrary.&#160; Applying the presumptions described in Article&nbsp;Fourth
of the Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation, the Company&#146;s records indicate
that 585,597,872 votes are entitled to be cast at the Meeting.&#160; All percentages of voting power set forth in
this proxy statement have been calculated based on such number of votes.&#160; Attached hereto as Annex A is a summary of
these voting provisions.</font></p>

will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting.&#160; The affirmative vote of a majority of the
voting power of the Company&#146;s common stock represented and entitled to vote at
the Meeting is required for the approval of the shareholder proposal, the
ratification of the appointment of the Company&#146;s independent registered public
accounting firm and approval of any other item of business to be voted upon at
the Meeting.&#160; Abstentions from voting on
any matter will be included in the voting tally.&#160; Abstentions will have no effect on the
election of Directors.&#160; An abstention
will have the same effect as a vote against the shareholder proposal and the
proposal to ratify the appointment of the Company&#146;s independent registered
public accounting firm.&#160; Broker non-votes
are shares held by a broker or nominee that are represented at the Meeting, but
with respect to which such broker or nominee is not empowered to vote on a
particular proposal.&#160; A broker non-vote
will not be considered entitled to vote on matters as to which the broker
withholds authority; therefore, broker non-votes are not included in the
tabulation of voting results.&#160; Broker
non-votes will have no effect on the election of Directors, and broker
non-votes will not be included in the tabulation of voting results with respect
to the shareholder proposal or the proposal to ratify the appointment of the
Company&#146;s registered public accounting firm.&#160;
Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148; Pilgrim owned or controlled over 50% of the voting power of
the outstanding common stock on the Record Date, and thus will be able to elect
all of the nominees for Directors and determine the outcome of all other matters
presented to a vote of the stockholders.</font></p>

Audit Committee oversees the Company&#146;s accounting and financial reporting
processes and the integrity of the Company&#146;s financial statements on behalf of
the Board of Directors.&#160; Management has
the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting
process, including the systems of internal controls.&#160; In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities,
the committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements in the
Annual Report with management, including a discussion of the quality, not just
the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of
significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial
statements.</font></p>

committee reviewed with the independent auditors who are responsible for
expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements
with generally accepted accounting principles, their judgments as to the
quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company&#146;s accounting principles and
such other matters as are required to be discussed with the committee under
generally accepted auditing standards.&#160;
In addition, the committee has discussed with the independent auditors the
auditor&#146;s independence from management and the Company, and has received from
the independent auditors the written disclosures and the letter from the
independent auditors required by the Independence Standards Board.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">mature chickens from Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim
at a market-based formula price subject to a ceiling price calculated at Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim&#146;s
cost plus 2 percent.&#160; Additionally, we
process the payroll for certain employees of Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim and Pilgrim
Poultry G.P. (&#147;PPGP&#148;) as well as perform certain administrative bookkeeping
services for Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim&#146;s personal businesses.&#160; During fiscal 2005, we paid Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim,
doing business as PPGP, $54,318,416 for chickens produced in his grow-out
operations and refunds of unused prepayments, and PPGP paid us $53,041,755 for
chicks, feed, services and prepayments related thereto, including the payroll
services described above.&#160; Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148;
Pilgrim is the sole proprietor of PPGP.&#160;
During the year ended October&nbsp;1, 2005 these transactions resulted
in a net operating profit to Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim of $1,017,000.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">PPGP
also rents facilities to us for the production of eggs.&#160; On December&nbsp;29, 2000, we entered into an
agreement with PPGP to rent its egg production facilities for a monthly amount
of $62,500.&#160; During fiscal year 2005, we
paid rental on the facilities of $750,000 to PPGP.&#160; Our management believes that the terms of
this agreement with PPGP are substantially similar to, and contain terms not
less favorable to us than, agreements obtainable from unaffiliated parties.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .65pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We
also maintain depository accounts with a financial institution of which Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148;
Pilgrim is a major stockholder.&#160; Fees
paid to this bank in fiscal 2005 are insignificant, and as of October&nbsp;1,
2005, we had bank balances at this financial institution of approximately $1.6
million.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .65pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Since
1985, we have leased an airplane from Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148; Pilgrim under a lease
agreement which provides for monthly lease payments of $33,000 plus operating
expenses, which terms our management believes to be substantially similar to
those obtainable from unaffiliated parties.&#160;
During fiscal 2005 we had lease expenses of $396,000 and operating
expenses of $140,090 associated with the use of this airplane.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .65pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Historically,
much of our debt has been guaranteed by our major stockholders.&#160; In consideration of such guarantees, we have
paid such stockholders a quarterly fee equal to .25% of the average aggregate
outstanding balance of such guaranteed debt.&#160;
During fiscal 2005, we paid $1,774,753 to Pilgrim Interests, Ltd., an
affiliate of Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148; Pilgrim.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .65pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .15pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:36.2pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Certain members of the family of Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148; Pilgrim are employed by
us, including his son, Lonnie Ken Pilgrim, a Director and our Executive Vice
President, Assistant to Chairman, his son, Pat Pilgrim and his daughter, Greta
Pilgrim-Owens, who received total compensation in fiscal 2005 of $459,160,
$459,072 and $470,263, respectively.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .15pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:36.2pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .15pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:36.2pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pat Pilgrim also provided hauling and pumping services to the Company
for which he was paid $250,814. He also paid the Company $12,400 in fiscal 2005
for land he leases from the Company. These transactions have terms
substantially the same as contracts entered into by the Company with
unaffiliated parties. On November&nbsp;30, 2005, the Audit Committee
pre-approved the Company entering into three contracts with Pat Pilgrim and
purchasing a substantially unused aerator from Pat Pilgrim for a purchase price
of $8,000.&#160; The aerator was purchased by
Pat Pilgrim in May&nbsp;2005 for $9,500.&#160;
The contracts pre-approved by the Audit Committee include a general
services agreement, a transportation agreement and a lease of certain land from
the Company providing for lease payments of $23,263.50 per year.&#160; The general services agreement and the
transportation agreement are intended to document the services provided by Pat
Pilgrim, which for fiscal 2005, are described above.&#160; Management believes the terms of each of the
contracts, the lease and the purchase of the aerator are substantially similar
to those obtainable from unaffiliated parties.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Godwin
Gruber LLP represents us in connection with a variety of legal matters.&#160; James G. Vetter,&nbsp;Jr., is a Director of
the Company and is a shareholder of Godwin Gruber LLP.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .65pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We
have entered into chicken grower contracts involving farms owned by certain of
our officers, providing the placement of Pilgrim&#146;s Pride-owned flocks on their
farms during the grow-out phase of production.&#160;
These contracts are on terms substantially the same as contracts entered
into by the Company with unaffiliated parties and can be terminated by either
party upon completion of the grow-out of each flock.&#160; The aggregate amount paid by us to Lonnie &#147;Bo&#148;
Pilgrim under these grower contracts during fiscal 2005 was $223,889.</font></p>

During fiscal years 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company owned and operated
airplanes to facilitate business travel of certain of its employees in as safe
a manner as possible with the best use of their time.&#160; Mr.&nbsp;Pilgrim and certain other named
executive officers use the corporate aircraft for business travel and on a
limited basis for personal travel. The value of personal aircraft usage
reported above is based on the Company&#146;s direct operating cost. The methodology
calculates our incremental cost based on the average weighted cost of fuel,
aircraft maintenance, landing fees, trip-related hanger and parking costs, and
smaller variable costs. Since the corporate aircraft are used primarily for
business travel, the methodology excludes fixed costs which do not change based
on usage, such as pilots&#146; and other employees&#146; salaries, purchase cost of the
aircraft and non-trip related hanger expenses. On certain occasions, an
employee&#146;s spouse or other family member may accompany the employee on a
flight. No additional direct operating cost is incurred in such situations
under the foregoing methodology.</p>

for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), 501 Front Street, Norfolk, VA
23510, the beneficial owner of 260 shares of the Company&#146;s common stock, that
it intends to propose the following resolution at the annual meeting:</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Supporting Statement</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Chickens
and turkeys raised for Pilgrim&#146;s Pride are violently abused during gathering
and shackling and are forced to endure gruesome, painful deaths by archaic
slaughter and stunning methods that often include scalding birds to death or
slitting their throats while they are conscious, as other terrified birds look
on and struggle to free themselves from their shackles.&#160; A recent incident at one of our plants in
West Virginia where workers were documented tearing the heads off live birds,
spitting tobacco in their eyes, stomping on them, and spray-painting their
faces is indicative of the type of unnecessary violence that our company is
responsible for.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This
is a stark contrast to our company&#146;s public claim that it will &#147;strictly
maintain a program of animal welfare&#133;to eliminate unnecessary harm and
suffering for animals.&#148;&#160; While our
company did punish the employees who were caught sadistically torturing birds
in West Virginia-after millions of Americans learned of the abuse-it has not
taken the steps required to ensure that the principles espoused in its own
Animal Welfare Policy are actually followed.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
cruelty documented in West Virginia stunned the public, tarnished our company&#146;s
image, and adversely affected the value of our stock.&#160; Other companies are starting to explore a new
slaughter technology known as controlled-atmosphere killing (CAK), which
drastically reduces the amount of suffering birds endure, since it eliminates
live dumping, live shackling, electrical stunning, and the possibility that
animals will still be conscious when their throats are slit or they are scalded
for feather removal.&#160; The CAK system also
eliminates worker contact with live birds, thus eliminating any possibility of
worker cruelty to animals.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">CAK
involves removing oxygen from the birds&#146; environment and slowly replacing it
with an inert gas, such as argon or nitrogen (which make up about 80 percent of
the air we&#146;re breathing now), putting the birds to sleep quickly and
painlessly.&#160; CAK, which is currently
being used by some of McDonald&#146;s suppliers in the United Kingdom, is a U.S.
Department of Agriculture-approved method of slaughter, and it has been
described by animal welfare experts as &#147;the most stress-free, humane method of
killing poultry ever developed.&#148;&#160; The
technology also has positive worker, food-safety, and carcass-quality benefits,
including increased meat yield and longer shelf life.&#160; It has even been shown that the money saved
by switching to a CAK system would recoup the initial investment within a few
years.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">the intent to promote the
humane treatment and well-being of poultry through the production process.&#160; Employees who violate the Company&#146;s animal
welfare policy and associated procedures are subject to disciplinary action, up
to and including termination of employment.&#160;
Although the Company was appalled and outraged by the behavior of the
referenced West Virginia workers, whose employment was subsequently terminated
by the Company, the Company is also appalled by the behavior of the PETA
investigator employed at the West Virginia facility. If the PETA investigator
had reported the incidents to plant management or the employee hotline, as he
had been instructed during the Company&#146;s animal welfare training he received,
corrective and disciplinary actions would have been taken months earlier and
chickens would have been spared from suffering the abuses.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Regardless
of the motives of PETA and its investigator, the Company continually reviews
and assesses its business processes, not only to improve the quality of its
products and enhance shareholder value, but also to improve animal
welfare.&#160; As part of these efforts, the
Company has evaluated, and continues to evaluate, CAK.&#160; These evaluations consider a number of
factors, including: animal welfare; scientific research and studies; production
methods used commercially both in the U.S. and internationally; food safety and
product quality; the safety of humans involved in the slaughter process;
technical difficulties in operating equipment and procedures; environmental
factors and expected costs.&#160; The research
on CAK is incomplete and inconclusive as to whether it is a better and more
humane method than conventional methods.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Company&#146;s commitment, leadership and results with respect to animal welfare
matters are well established, and recognized, within the industry.&#160; The Company works hard to be a good corporate
citizen and believes in good animal handling practices.&#160; Its policies are designed to help to achieve
the humane treatment of animals, not only because it is the right thing to do,
but because it also helps assure high quality, healthful products for
consumers.&#160; The Company believes that the
proposed animal welfare report is unnecessary and would not result in any
additional benefit to shareholders.&#160; The
proposed report would be costly and time-intensive, and is duplicative of
existing policies, initiatives and efforts.</font></p>

stockholders of Pilgrim&#146;s Pride Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148; or the &#147;Corporation&#148;)
approved an amendment (the &#147;Amendment&#148;) to the Company&#146;s Certificate of
Incorporation which reclassified each share of the Company&#146;s Class&nbsp;A
common stock and each share of the Company&#146;s Class&nbsp;B common stock into one
share of new common stock, par value $.01 per share (the &#147;Common Stock&#148;).&#160; The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment
to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware
affecting the Amendment on November&nbsp;21, 2003, and the reclassification
contemplated thereby (the &#147;Reclassification&#148;) became effective on such
date.&#160; Set forth below is a summary of
the voting provisions of the Common Stock.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

in the name of any person that are represented by certificates dated on or
prior to November&nbsp;21, 2003, the date of the Reclassification, are presumed
to have 20 votes per share, and all other shares are presumed to have one vote
per share.&#160; However, the Company&#146;s
Certificate of Incorporation (the relevant provisions of which are reproduced
below) sets forth a list of circumstances in which the foregoing presumption
may be refuted.&#160; If you believe that the
voting information set forth on your proxy card is incorrect or a presumption
made with respect to your shares should not apply, please send a letter to the
Secretary of the Company, at 4845 U.S. Highway 271 N., Pittsburg, Texas 75686,
briefly describing the reasons for your belief.&#160;
Merely marking the proxy card will not be sufficient notification to the
Company that you believe the voting information thereon is incorrect.</p>

shares held in &#147;street&#148; or &#147;nominee&#148; name or by a broker, clearing agency,
voting trustee, bank, trust company or other nominee (including shares so held
at the time of the Reclassification) are presumed to have one vote per
share.&#160; The Company&#146;s Certificate of
Incorporation sets forth a list of circumstances in which the presumption may
be refuted by the person who has held since the Reclassification all of the
attributes of beneficial ownership referred to in Section&nbsp;(2)(b)&nbsp;reproduced
below.&#160; If you believe some or all of
your shares are entitled to 20 votes, you may follow one of two
procedures.&#160; First, you may write a
letter to the Secretary of the Company, at 4845 U.S. Highway 271 N., Pittsburg,
Texas 75686, describing the reasons for your belief.&#160; The letter should contain your name, the name
of the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee holding your shares, your account
number with such nominee and the number of shares you have beneficially owned
continuously since the Reclassification.&#160;
Alternatively, you may ask your broker, bank or other nominee to write a
letter to the Secretary of the Company on your behalf stating your account
number and indicating the number of shares that you have beneficially owned
continuously since the Reclassification.&#160;
In either case, your letter should indicate how you wish to have your
shares voted.</p>

received prior to the date of the Annual Meeting and, when a return address is
provided in the letter, will advise the party furnishing such letter of its
decision, although in many cases the Company will not have time to inform an
owner or nominee of its decision prior to the time the shares are voted.&#160; The Company may also require additional
information before a determination will be made.&#160; If you have any questions about the Company&#146;s
voting procedures, please call the Company at (903) 434-1000.</p>
