     (1)  To the best of my knowledge, based upon a review of the

          no covered report contained an untrue statement of a

          report (or in the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive
          proxy materials, as of the date on which it was filed); and

          no covered report omitted to state a material fact
          necessary to make the statements in the covered report, in
          light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
          misleading as of the end of the period covered by such
          report (or in the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive
          proxy materials, as of the date on which it was filed).

     (2)  I reviewed the contents of this statement with Seaboard
     Corporation's audit committee.

     filed on or before the date of this statement, is a "covered
