Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations

Overview

Our Business

Seneca  Foods  is  the  world's  leading  producer  and  distributor  of  canned
vegetables. Canned vegetables are sold nationwide in all channels serving retail
markets,  certain  export  markets,  the food service  industry,  and other food
processors.  Canned vegetables represent 88% of the Company's sales. The Company
maintains  a number one share in the  private  label,  food  service  and export
canned  vegetable  markets;  and a number three  position in the branded  canned
vegetable market. Our Company also supplies canned and frozen vegetable products
to General Mills  Operations,  Inc.  ("GMOI")  under an Alliance  Agreement.  In
addition,  our Company is the supplier of frozen vegetable products  principally
to the food  service  industry,  and fruit and snack chip  products  principally
serving retail markets and other food processors.

Currently, our business strategies are designed to maintain our market share and
enhance our sales and  margins  and  include:  (1)  position  the Company as the
low-cost,  high quality producer of canned vegetables through the elimination of
costs from our supply chain and  investment in  state-of-the-art  production and
logistical technology; (2) drive growth in earnings through the use of cash flow
to  de-leverage  the  balance  sheet;  and (3) focus on our growth  segments  to
capitalize on their higher expected returns.

The Acquisition

On May 27, 2003, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of the membership
interest in Chiquita  Processed  Foods,  L.L.C.  ("CPF")  from  Chiquita  Brands
International,   Inc.  The  rationale  for  the  acquisition  was  twofold:  (1)
strengthen the Company's  market position in the canned vegetable  segment;  and
(2) improve the Company's cost structure through the realization of cost savings
by eliminating  duplicative  functions and combining the purchasing power of the
two companies.  The purchase price totaled $126.1 million plus the assumption of
certain  liabilities.  This acquisition was financed with cash,  proceeds from a
new $200.0 million revolving credit facility, and $16.1 million of the Company's
Participating  Convertible  Preferred  Stock. The Preferred Stock is convertible
into the  Company's  Class A Common  Stock on a  one-for-one  basis  subject  to
antidilution  adjustments.  The  Preferred  Stock was valued at $16.60 per share
based  on the  market  value  of the  Class  A  Common  Stock  at the  time  the
acquisition was announced.

Restructuring

After a  comprehensive  review of our  production  capacities  following the CPF
acquisition,  the  Company  completed  a  plant  restructuring  program  in 2005
resulting in a restructuring  charge of $7.7 million.  The restructuring  charge
consisted of a non-cash  impairment  charge of $7.0 million and a cash severance
charge  of $0.7  million  which  are  included  in  Plant  Restructuring  in the
Consolidated  Statement of Net Earnings.  This restructuring program principally
involved the closure of three processing facilities including a green bean plant
in upstate New York and corn plants in Wisconsin  and  Washington.  In addition,
the Company restructured the newly acquired Payette,  Idaho facility through the
removal  of canned  meat  production  to focus  exclusively  on dry  beans.  The
rationalization of the Company's productive capacity:  1) improved the Company's
overall  cost  structure  and  competitive  position;  2)  addressed  the excess
capacity  situation arising from the recent acquisition of CPF; and 3) mitigated
the effect of  inflationary  pressures on the Company's raw material inputs such
as steel and fuel. During 2006, the non-cash  impairment charge was increased by
$0.2 million related to the green bean plant in New York.

The  closure  of the  Washington  corn  processing  facility  coincided  with an
amendment to the Alliance  Agreement with GMOI. Under the above  amendment,  the
Blue Earth,  Minnesota facility was removed from the Alliance Agreement due to a
reduction in GMOI volume  requirements  and will be operated by the Company as a
non-Alliance facility. Additionally, GMOI agreed to reimburse the Company in the
future for remaining  lease and  depreciation  costs at the Blue Earth  facility
which, on a net present value basis,  approximate  the closure costs  associated
with the Washington facility.

With the closure of the Washington corn processing facility in the fall of 2004,
the Company's labeling and warehousing  requirements at the Salem, Oregon leased
distribution  facility were dramatically reduced. In 2006, the Company announced
the phase out of the Salem labeling  operation which resulted in a restructuring
charge of $1.8 million  consisting of a provision  for future lease  payments of
$1.3 million, a cash severance charge of $0.4 million, and a non-cash impairment
charge of $0.1 million. The Company intends to use a portion of the facility for
warehousing and will attempt to sublease the remaining unutilized portion of the
facility until the February 2008 expiration of the lease.

The fiscal 2006 asparagus harvest, completed in the first quarter, represented a
partial  pack as GMOI was in  process  of moving  the  production  of  asparagus
offshore  from  the  Dayton,  Washington  manufacturing  facility.  Fiscal  2006
asparagus  sales to GMOI totaled $19.3  million.  As fiscal 2006  represents the
final year of operation  for the Dayton,  Washington  facility,  the Company and
GMOI have  negotiated  a  definitive  agreement  related to the  closure of this
facility.  Under the terms of the  agreement,  any costs incurred by the Company
related  to the  asparagus  production  prior to March 31,  2006 will be paid by
GMOI. The Company shall retain ownership of the real estate  associated with the
Dayton facility. In addition, the manufacturing equipment of the Dayton facility
shall  either be conveyed  to GMOI,  redeployed  by the  Company,  or  salvaged.
Lastly,  GMOI  reduced  the  principal  balance  of  the  secured   subordinated
promissory note by $0.5 million to $42.6 million,  which represents the net book
value of the equipment to be conveyed to GMOI or salvaged.

Divestitures

The Company sold three former Chiquita Processed Foods plants and related assets
to Lakeside Foods,  Inc. on June 17, 2003. The Company sold one additional plant
of Chiquita Processed Foods and related assets to Lakeside Foods, Inc. on August
6, 2003.  The  aforementioned  divestitures  to Lakeside Foods  generated  $46.0
million in cash  proceeds,  which was used to pay down debt.  The  Company  sold
additional  plant  locations and related assets that were  previously  closed by
Chiquita  Processed Foods and designated as assets held for sale during 2005 and
2004,  generating  $1.6 million and $2.5  million,  respectively,  in additional
proceeds used for debt repayment.

During 2006, the Company sold the previously closed corn processing  facility in
Washington  for $0.5 million in cash and a $3.6  million  note which  carries an
interest rate of 8% and is due in full on May 14, 2007.  This note is secured by
a  mortgage  on the  property.  The  Company  accounted  for the sale  under the
installment  method.  During the first quarter of 2006, $0.4 million of the gain
was included in Other Expense  (Income),  net and an additional  $2.8 million of
the gain on this sale was deferred in Other Long-Term Liabilities.

During 2006, the Company sold a warehouse location in Oregon, which resulted in
cash proceeds of $0.6 million and a pre-tax gain of $0.5 million. This gain was
included in Other Expense (Income), net.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Company's  primary  cash  requirements  are to make  payments  on our debt,
finance  seasonal  working  capital  needs  and to  make  capital  expenditures.
Internally  generated funds and amounts under our revolving  credit facility are
our primary sources of liquidity.

Revolving Credit Facility

On May 27, 2003, in connection with the Acquisition,  the Company entered into a
$200.0 million  five-year  floating rate secured  revolving credit facility (the
"Revolver")  with  several  lenders,  under which $118.2  million was  initially
borrowed.  As of March 31,  2006,  the  outstanding  balance on the Revolver was
$57.0 million. In order to maintain availability of funds under the facility, we
pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolver. The Revolver is used
to fund our seasonal  working  capital needs,  which are affected by the growing
cycles of the vegetables we process. The vast majority of vegetable  inventories
are produced  during the harvesting and packing months of June through  November
and depleted through the remaining six months. Accordingly,  our need to draw on
the Revolver may fluctuate significantly throughout the year. As a result of the
additional liquidity generated by the aforementioned  divestitures,  the Company
provided  notice to its bank  lenders  in 2005 of its  intention  to reduce  the
Revolver from $200.0 million to $125.0 million. During 2006, the Company and its
lenders  extended the term of the Revolver for an  additional  year with a final
maturity date of May 27, 2009 and the Company  further reduced the Revolver from
$125.0 million to $100.0 million.  Subsequent to 2006 year-end,  the Company and
its lenders extended the term of the Revolver for an additional two years with a
final maturity date of July 31, 2011.

We believe that cash flows from operations and  availability  under our Revolver
will provide  adequate  funds for our working  capital  needs,  planned  capital
expenditures and debt service obligations for at least the next 12 months.

Long-Term Debt

The Company has two major long-term debt instruments: 1) a $67.8 million secured
note payable to John Hancock Life  Insurance  Company,  with an interest rate of
8.03%, which is due through 2014; and 2) a $42.6 million secured note payable to
GMOI,  with an interest rate of 8%, which is due through  2010.  The Company did
not issue any  significant  long-term  debt in 2006.  During  2005,  the Company
issued a mortgage to GE Capital for $8.0 million with an interest  rate of 6.35%
and a term of 15  years.  The  proceeds  were  used  to  finance  new  warehouse
construction in Janesville and Cambria, Wisconsin.

At March 31, 2006,  scheduled  maturities of long-term  debt in each of the five
succeeding fiscal years are as follows (in thousands):

                  2007                 $ 9,116
                  2008                   8,972
                  2009                   9,169
                  2010                  37,663
                  2011                   5,346
                  Thereafter            77,663

Restrictive Covenants

Our credit  facilities  contain  covenants  that  restrict  our  ability and the
ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional  indebtedness,  pay dividends on
and  redeem  our  capital  stock,  make  other  restricted  payments,  including
investments,  sell our assets, incur liens, transfer all or substantially all of
our assets and enter into consolidations or mergers.  Our credit facilities also
require us to meet  certain  financial  tests,  including  minimum  fixed charge
coverage,  minimum  interest  coverage  and  maximum  total debt  ratios.  These
financial  requirements  and ratios generally become more restrictive over time,
subject to allowances for seasonal  fluctuations.  We are in compliance with all
such financial covenants, and were in compliance therewith as of March 31, 2006.
The most restrictive  financial covenant in the credit agreements is the minimum
fixed charge coverage ratio.

Capital Expenditures

Capital  expenditures  in 2006 totaled  $11.9 million and include a $2.3 million
waste  treatment  expansion  in the  Midwest,  equipment  replacement  and other
improvements, and economic return and cost saving projects. Capital expenditures
in 2005 totaled $14.4 million and include $7.4 million of construction costs for
three warehouse expansion projects in Geneva, New York;  Janesville,  Wisconsin;
and Cambria,  Wisconsin  together  with  equipment  replacement  and cost saving
projects.  The total  cost of the  Geneva,  Janesville,  and  Cambria  warehouse
projects during 2005 and 2004 was $14.8 million.

Inventories

In 2006,  inventories increased by $12.8 million primarily reflecting the effect
of higher  quantities on hand associated with the large harvest in the summer of
2005, partially offset by unit cost reductions.  In 2005,  inventories increased
by $24.2 million primarily  reflecting the effect of unit cost increases for key
commodity inputs including steel and energy.

Critical Accounting Policies

During the year ended 2006, the Company sold for cash, on a bill and hold basis,
$197.6 million of Green Giant  finished goods  inventory to GMOI. At the time of
the sale of the Green Giant vegetables to GMOI, title of the specified inventory
transferred to GMOI. In addition,  the  aforementioned  finished goods inventory
was  complete,  ready for  shipment  and  segregated  from the  Company's  other
finished  goods  inventory.  Further,  the  Company  had  performed  all  of its
obligations with respect to the sale of the specified Green Giant finished goods
inventory.

Trade  promotions  are an important  component of the sales and marketing of the
Company's  branded  products,  and are critical to the support of the  business.
Trade promotion costs,  which are recorded as a reduction of net sales,  include
amounts paid to encourage  retailers to offer temporary price reductions for the
sale of our  products to  consumers,  amounts paid to obtain  favorable  display
positions in retailers' stores, and amounts paid to retailers for shelf space in
retail stores.  Accruals for trade promotions are recorded primarily at the time
of sale of product to the  retailer  based on  expected  levels of  performance.
Settlement of these liabilities typically occurs in subsequent periods primarily
through an authorized  process for  deductions  taken by a retailer from amounts
otherwise due to us. As a result, the ultimate cost of a trade promotion program
is dependent on the relative  success of the events and the actions and level of
deductions  taken by  retailers  for amounts they  consider  due to them.  Final
determination of the permissible deductions may take extended periods of time.

The Company assesses its long-lived  assets for impairment  whenever there is an
indicator of impairment.  Property,  plant,  and equipment are depreciated  over
their  assigned  lives.  The assigned lives and the projected cash flows used to
test impairment are subjective.  If actual lives are shorter than anticipated or
if future cash flows are less than anticipated,  a future impairment charge or a
loss on  disposal  of the  assets  could  be  incurred.  Impairment  losses  are
evaluated  if the net  present  value of the cash  flows are less than  carrying
value. A loss is recognized when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair
value.

Obligations and Commitments

As of March  31,  2006,  the  Company  is  obligated  to make cash  payments  in
connection with our capital leases,  debt, and operating  leases.  The effect of
these  obligations  and  commitments  on our  liquidity and cash flows in future
periods are listed below. All of these  arrangements  require cash payments over
varying periods of time.  Certain of these  arrangements are cancelable on short
notice and others require termination or severance payments as part of any early
termination.

than the items noted above.

Standby Letters of Credit

We have standby letters of credit for certain insurance-related requirements and
capital leases.  The majority of our standby letters of credit are automatically
renewed annually,  unless the issuer gives  cancellation  notice in advance.  On
March 31, 2006, we had $6.2 million in outstanding standby letters of credit.

Cash Flows

In 2006, our cash and cash equivalents  increased by $0.9 million,  which is due
to the net impact of $31.8  million  provided  by  operating  activities,  $10.7
million  used in  investing  activities,  and $20.2  million  used by  financing
activities.

Operating Activities

Cash  provided by operating  activities  increased to $31.8 million in 2006 from
$18.0 million in 2005. The increase is primarily a function of higher  operating
earnings in 2006 and the lower  inventory  buildup in 2006 versus 2005. The cash
requirements  of the business  fluctuate  significantly  throughout  the year to
coincide with the seasonal  growing cycles of  vegetables.  The vast majority of
the  inventories  are  produced  during the packing  months,  from June  through
November,  and then depleted  during the  remaining  six months.  Cash flow from
operating activities is one of our main sources of liquidity.

Cash  provided by operating  activities  increased to $18.0 million in 2005 from
$1.6 million in 2004.  The increase is primarily a function of the negative cash
flow impact in 2004  associated with the inventory  increase  related to the CPF
acquisition partially offset by lower operating earnings in 2005.

Investing Activities

Cash  used in  investing  activities  was  $10.7  million  in 2006,  principally
reflecting  capital  expenditures  partially  offset by $1.2 million in proceeds
from the sale of certain fixed assets.  Capital  expenditures  aggregated  $11.9
million in 2006  versus  $14.4  million in 2005.  Capital  expenditures  in 2006
include a $2.3 million  waste  treatment  expansion  in the  Midwest,  equipment
replacements  and  other  improvements,  and  economic  return  and cost  saving
projects.

Cash  used in  investing  activities  was  $8.2  million  in  2005,  principally
reflecting  capital  expenditures  partially  offset by $6.2 million in proceeds
from the sale of assets  including  $4.6 million from the sale of Class B Common
Stock of Moog Inc. Capital expenditures  aggregated $14.4 million in 2005 versus
$23.1  million  in  2004.  Capital  expenditures  were  unusually  high  in 2004
reflecting a significant  number of equipment upgrades and other improvements in
connection  with  the CPF  acquisition.  Capital  expenditures  in 2005 and 2004
included $7.4 million and $7.2 million,  respectively,  for warehouse  expansion
projects. This included the completion of the Janesville and Cambria,  Wisconsin
projects started in 2004 and a Geneva, New York warehouse expansion.

Cash  used in  investing  activities  was  $85.9  million  for  2004,  primarily
reflecting the cash  requirements  of the CPF  acquisition  partially  offset by
proceeds from the sale of assets  primarily  involving the  divestiture  of four
plants to Lakeside Foods. Capital expenditures  aggregated $23.1 million in 2004
versus $6.8 million in 2003. The increase is primarily attributable to equipment
replacement  and other  improvements  at the former CPF locations  together with
$7.2 million of construction in progress on two warehouse  expansion projects in
Janesville and Cambria, Wisconsin.

Financing Activities

Cash  used in  financing  activities  was  $20.2  million  in  2006  principally
consisting of the repayment of $17.0 million in long-term debt and the repayment
of $3.7 million in notes payable.

Cash  used  in  financing  activities  was  $9.2  million  in  2005  principally
consisting of the repayment of $21.9 million in long-term debt partially  offset
by the $9.1 million in proceeds from long-term  debt. Cash provided by financing
activities was $23.9 million in 2004.  During 2004, we borrowed cash to fund the
CPF acquisition.

===============================================================


Net sales for fiscal 2006 increased $19.5 million, or 2%, from $864.3 million to
$883.8  million.  The increase  primarily  reflects a $14.9 million  increase in
sales to GMOI associated with the favorable growing  conditions in the summer of
2005  together  with a $3.3  million  increase in Fruit and Chip  Product  sales
reflecting  increased co-pack potato chip volume associated with improved market
conditions.

Cost of product sold as a percentage  of sales  decreased  from 92.6% in 2005 to
90.1% in 2006 primarily reflecting favorable  manufacturing variances associated
with the  excellent  growing  season which drove  improved crop yields and plant
recovery rates. Furthermore, the Company's overall cost structure benefited from
the  closure  of three  processing  facilities  in  connection  with  the  plant
restructuring program implemented in 2005.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expense  increased  slightly from 3.7% of
sales  in 2005 to 3.8% in  2006  principally  reflecting  strategic  initiatives
undertaken in the information technology area.

Plant restructuring costs decreased from $7.7 million in 2005 to $1.9 million in
2006 and are described in detail in the  Restructuring  section of  Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Interest  expense  decreased from $16.6 million in 2005 to $15.8 million in 2006
primarily reflecting the scheduled repayment of long-term debt in 2006.


Other  expense of $1.1 million in 2006  primarily  reflects the effect of a $1.9
million non-cash loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment which was
partially  offset by a $1.0  million gain on the sale of certain  fixed  assets.
Other income of $3.8 million in 2005  reflects the gain on the sale of Moog Inc.
stock of $3.9  million and the gain on the sale of certain  fixed assets of $0.6
million.  This  was  partially  offset  by a  non-cash  charge  of $0.7  million
reflecting  the  write-down  of deferred  financing  costs  associated  with the
reduction of the Revolver from $200 million to $125 million.

As a result of the above factors,  pre-tax earnings increased from $12.0 million
in 2005 to $35.5  million in 2006.  The effective tax rate was 38.0% in 2006 and
34.3% in 2005. The increase in the 2006 effective tax rate reflects the reversal
of certain tax reserves in 2005 which were no longer required.

Fiscal 2005 versus Fiscal 2004

Net sales for fiscal 2005 decreased $26.6 million, or 3%, from $890.9 million to
$864.3 million.  The decrease  primarily  reflects a planned  reduction of $22.5
million in GMOI production  which was exacerbated by the poor sweet corn growing
conditions  in the  summer  of 2004.  In  addition,  we  experienced  a  planned
reduction  of $15.0  million in canned  vegetable  co-pack  volume  reflecting a
strategic decision by the Company to exit certain unprofitable co-pack business.
Although 2004 included only 10 months of CPF acquisition-related sales activity,
the sales  retention rate from the  acquisition  was higher in 2004,  reflecting
volume associated with plants that were ultimately divested to Lakeside Foods.

Cost of product sold as a percentage  of sales  increased  from 92.2% in 2004 to
92.6% in 2005.  The  increase  in the  percentage  of the cost of  product  sold
reflects higher  production  costs in fiscal 2005  associated  with  unfavorable
manufacturing  variances  principally  the result of commodity  inflation in key
inputs such as steel,  natural gas,  and fuel.  In addition,  we  experienced  a
difficult  growing  season in fiscal 2005 due to lower average  temperatures  in
August which impacted crop yields,  plant recovery rates and further resulted in
certain  contracted  raw  produce  being  unable  to be  harvested.  The cost of
complying  with the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002,  which totaled $2.5 million in
2005, was also a significant factor in the cost increase.  Furthermore, the cost
of a product recall,  initiated in the second quarter of 2005,  amounted to $1.4
million.  Finally,  we were unable to fully pass along those higher costs to our
customers,  since many of our customer  contracts are  semi-annual and annual in
nature.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expense remained at 3.7% of sales, as the
negative impact of the sales reduction was offset by effective expense control.

Plant  restructuring  costs were $7.7 million in 2005  primarily  involving  the
closure of three processing  facilities which are detailed in the  Restructuring
section  above.  As a result of the CPF  acquisition,  the  Company  was able to
complete plant consolidations which will result in substantial savings by moving
the volumes into other plants with minimal capital investment.

Interest  expense  increased from $16.1 million in 2004 to $16.6 million in 2005
primarily reflecting a full year of acquisition-related debt in 2005.

Other income of $3.8 million in 2005  reflects the gain on the sale of Moog Inc.
stock of $3.9 million and the sale of certain fixed assets of $0.6 million. This
was  partially  offset by a  non-cash  charge  of $0.7  million  reflecting  the
write-down  of deferred  financing  costs  associated  with the reduction of the
Revolver from $200 million to $125 million. Other income of $0.2 million in 2004
reflects the gain on the sale of certain fixed assets.

As a result of the above factors,  pre-tax earnings decreased from $20.5 million
in 2004 to $12.0  million in 2005.  The effective tax rate was 34.3% in 2005 and
37.0% in 2004.  The reduction in the 2005 effective tax reflects the reversal of
certain tax reserves which were no longer required.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May  2005,  the FASB  issued  Statement  of  Accounting  Standards  No.  154,
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections ("SFAS 154"). SFAS 154 replaces APB No.
20, Accounting Changes,  and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim
Financial Statements,  and establishes  retrospective application of a change in
accounting  principle.  SFAS  154  provides  guidance  for  determining  whether
retrospective application is impracticable.  The reporting of a correction of an
error by restating previously issued financial statements is also addressed SFAS
154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal
years  beginning  after December 15, 2005. The Company does not anticipate  that
the adoption of SFAS 154 will have a material effect on the Company's  financial
position or results of operations.

In November  2004,  the FASB issued  Statement of Accounting  Standards No. 151,
"Inventory  Costs,  and amendment of ARB No. 43,  Chapter 4" ("SFAS 151").  This
statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the
accounting  for abnormal  amounts of idle facility  expense,  freight,  handling
costs,  and wasted  material  (spoilage).  SFAS 151 requires that those items be
recognized  as  current-period  charges  regardless  of  whether  they  meet the
criteria "so abnormal." In addition,  this statement requires that allocation of
fixed production  overheads to cost of conversion be based on normal capacity of
the  production  facilities.  The  provisions  of  SFAS  151  shall  be  applied
prospectively and are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2005, with earlier application  permitted for inventory
costs incurred  during fiscal years  beginning  after the date this Statement is
issued.  The  Company's  adoption of SFAS 151 is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

As a result of its regular borrowing activities, the Company's operating results
are  exposed to  fluctuations  in  interest  rates,  which it manages  primarily
through its regular  financing  activities.  The Company uses a revolving credit
facility  with  variable  interest  rates to finance  seasonal  working  capital
requirements. The Company maintains $6.0 million in cash equivalents as of March
31,  2006.  Long-term  debt is used to finance  long-term  investments,  such as
business  acquisitions,  and  principally  consists of secured notes payable and
capital lease  obligations.  Long-term debt bears interest at fixed and variable
rates. With $88.8 million in average variable-rate debt, a 1% change in interest
rates would have an $888  thousand  effect on interest  expense.  The  following
table provides  information about the Company's  financial  instruments that are
sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents  principal cash flows
and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date.  Weighted
average interest rates on long-term  variable-rate debt are based on rates as of
March 31, 2006. Weighted average interest rates on short-term variable-rate debt
are based on average rates throughout fiscal 2006.

Commodity Risk

The materials that the Company uses,  such as vegetables,  steel,  and packaging
materials  are  commodities  that may  experience  price  volatility  caused  by
external  factors   including  market   fluctuations,   availability,   currency
fluctuations, and changes in governmental regulations and agricultural programs.
These events can result in reduced  supplies of these  materials,  higher supply
costs,  or  interruptions  in our production  schedules.  If prices of these raw
materials  increase and the Company is not able to  effectively  pass such price
increases along to its customers,  operating  income will decrease.  In light of
the recent  volatility in steel  pricing,  a 5% change in steel unit costs would
equate to a $3.2 million cost impact.

The Company does not currently use derivative instruments to potentially alter
its interest rate or commodity risks.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Seneca Foods Corporation and Subsidiaries

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations - Seneca Foods Corporation and subsidiaries ("The Company")
conducts its business  almost entirely in food  processing,  operating 27 plants
and warehouses in seven states.  The Company  markets  branded and private label
processed foods to retailers and institutional food distributors.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated  financial statements include the
accounts for the parent Company and all of its wholly-owned  subsidiaries  after
elimination of intercompany transactions, profits, and balances.

Revenue Recognition - Sales and related cost of product sold are recognized when
legal  title  passes to the  purchaser,  which is  primarily  upon  shipment  of
products.  When customers,  under the terms of specific orders, request that the
Company  invoice  goods and hold the  goods for  future  shipment,  the  Company
recognizes  revenue when legal title to the finished goods  inventory  passes to
the  purchaser.  Generally,  the Company  receives cash from the purchaser  when
legal title passes.  During the year ended 2006, the Company sold for cash, on a
bill and hold basis,  $197.6 million of Green Giant finished goods  inventory to
GMOI. At the time of the sale of the Green Giant  vegetables  to GMOI,  title of
the specified  inventory  transferred to GMOI. In addition,  the  aforementioned
finished goods  inventory was complete,  ready for shipment and segregated  from
the Company's other finished goods inventory. Further, the Company had performed
all of its  obligations  with respect to the sale of the  specified  Green Giant
finished goods inventory.

Trade  promotions  are an important  component of the sales and marketing of the
Company's  branded  products,  and are critical to the support of the  business.
Trade promotion costs,  which are recorded as a reduction of net sales,  include
amounts paid to encourage  retailers to offer temporary price reductions for the
sale of our  products to  consumers,  amounts paid to obtain  favorable  display
positions in retailers' stores, and amounts paid to retailers for shelf space in
retail stores.  Accruals for trade promotions are recorded primarily at the time
of sale of product to the  retailer  based on  expected  levels of  performance.
Settlement of these liabilities typically occurs in subsequent periods primarily
through an authorized  process for  deductions  taken by a retailer from amounts
otherwise due to us. As a result, the ultimate cost of a trade promotion program
is dependent on the relative  success of the events and the actions and level of
deductions  taken by  retailers  for amounts they  consider  due to them.  Final
determination of the permissible deductions may take extended periods of time.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial  instruments  that potentially  subject
the Company to credit risk  consist of trade  receivables  and  interest-bearing
investments.  Wholesale  and retail  food  distributors  comprise a  significant
portion of the trade  receivables;  collateral  is  generally  not  required.  A
relatively  limited  number of customers  account for a large  percentage of our
total  sales.  GMOI sales  represented  27%,  26% and 28% of net sales in fiscal
2006,  2005  and  2004,   respectively.   The  top  ten  customers   represented
approximately  55%,  52% and 49%, of net sales for fiscal  2006,  2005 and 2004,
respectively.  The Company closely  monitors the credit risk associated with its
customers.   The  Company  places  substantially  all  of  its  interest-bearing
investments with financial  institutions and monitors credit exposure.  Cash and
short-term  investments in certain  accounts  exceed the federal  insured limit,
however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid  instruments
purchased  with an  original  maturity  of three  months  or less as  short-term
investments.

Inventories  -  Inventories  are stated at lower of cost;  determined  under the
first-in,  first-out (FIFO) method; or market.

Income Taxes - The provision for income taxes includes  federal and state income
taxes  currently  payable and those  deferred  because of temporary  differences
between the financial  statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and tax
credit carryforwards.

Shipping  and  Handling  Costs - The Company  includes all shipping and handling
costs billed to customers  in net sales and the  corresponding  costs in cost of
product sold.

Doubtful  Accounts - A provision for doubtful accounts is recorded based upon an
assessment of credit risk within the accounts receivable  portfolio,  experience
of  delinquencies  (accounts  over 15 days past due) and  charge-offs  (accounts
removed from accounts  receivable for expectation of  non-payment),  and current
market conditions.  Management believes these provisions are adequate based upon
the relevant information  presently available.  However, it is possible that the
Company's provisions may change in the future.

Earnings per Common Share - The Company has two classes of convertible preferred
stock,  which are deemed to be  participating  securities  that are  entitled to
participate  in any dividend on Class A common stock as if the  preferred  stock
had been  converted into common stock  immediately  prior to the record date for
such  dividend.  Basic  earnings per share for common  stock must be  calculated
using the  "two-class"  method by  dividing  the  earnings  allocated  to common
stockholders  by the weighted  average of common shares  outstanding  during the
period.

Diluted  earnings  per share is  calculated  by dividing  earnings  allocated to
common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average common shares outstanding
plus the dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock using the "if-converted"
method, which treats the  contingently-issuable  shares of convertible preferred
stock as common stock.

Depreciation  and Valuation - Property,  plant, and equipment are stated at cost
or, in the case of capital  leases,  the present value of future lease payments.
For financial reporting, the Company provides for depreciation and capital lease
amortization  on the  straight-line  method at rates  based  upon the  estimated
useful lives of the various  assets on term of lease,  if shorter.  Depreciation
and capital lease amortization was $23,011,000,  $28,503,000, and $28,676,000 in
fiscal 2006,  2005, and 2004,  respectively.  The estimated  useful lives are as
follows: buildings - 30 years; machinery and equipment - 10-15 years; vehicles -
3-7 years; and land improvements - 10-20 years.  Impairment losses are evaluated
if the net present value of the cash flows are less than carrying  value. A loss
is recognized  when the carrying  value of an asset exceeds its fair value.  The
Company  assesses its  long-lived  assets for  impairment  whenever  there is an
indicator of  impairment.  There were $79,000 of  impairment  loses in 2006 that
were included in Plant Restructuring. There were $4,960,000 of impairment losses
in 2005 that were included in Plant Restructuring (see Plant Restructuring, note
15). There were no impairment  losses in 2004.  Assets held for sale are carried
at the lower of estimated fair value less selling costs or depreciated  value at
date of determination to sell.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements - The preparation of
financial  statements  in conformity  with U.S.  generally  accepted  accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported  amount of assets and  liabilities  and the  disclosure  of  contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial  statements,  as well as the
related revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual amounts could
differ from those estimated.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of
Accounting  Standards No. 154,  Accounting  Changes and Error Corrections ("SFAS
154").  SFAS 154  replaces  APB No.  20,  Accounting  Changes,  and SFAS No.  3,
Reporting  Accounting Changes in Interim Financial  Statements,  and establishes
retrospective application of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 provides
guidance for determining whether retrospective application is impracticable. The
reporting of a correction of an error by restating  previously  issued financial
statements is also addressed  SFAS 154 is effective for  accounting  changes and
corrections  of errors made in fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 2005.
The  Company  does not  anticipate  that the  adoption  of SFAS 154 will  have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In November  2004,  the FASB issued  Statement of Accounting  Standards No. 151,
"Inventory  Costs,  and amendment of ARB No. 43,  Chapter 4" ("SFAS 151").  This
statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the
accounting  for abnormal  amounts of idle facility  expense,  freight,  handling
costs,  and wasted  material  (spoilage).  SFAS 151 requires that those items be
recognized  as  current-period  charges  regardless  of  whether  they  meet the
criteria "so abnormal." In addition,  this statement requires that allocation of
fixed production  overheads to cost of conversion be based on normal capacity of
the  production  facilities.  The  provisions  of  SFAS  151  shall  be  applied
prospectively and are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2005, with earlier application  permitted for inventory
costs incurred  during fiscal years  beginning after the date this Statement was
issued.  The  Company's  adoption of SFAS 151 is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

2.  Acquisition

On May 27, 2003, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of the membership
interest in Chiquita  Processed  Foods,  L.L.C.  ("CPF")  from  Chiquita  Brands
International,  Inc.  The  primary  reason  for the  acquisition  was to acquire
additional  production capacity in the Canned Vegetable  business.  The purchase
price totaled $126.1 million plus the  assumption of certain  liabilities.  This
acquisition was financed with cash, proceeds from a new $200.0 million revolving
credit facility,  and $16.1 million of the Company's  Participating  Convertible
Preferred  Stock.  The Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company's Class A
Common Stock on a one-for-one  basis.  The Preferred  Stock was valued at $16.60
per share based on the market  value of the Class A Common Stock at the time the
acquisition was announced.

As part of this  acquisition,  the Company assumed and immediately paid off most
of CPF's debt and capital  lease  obligations  with proceeds from the new $200.0
million revolving credit facility.

The Company sold three former CPF plants and related  assets to Lakeside  Foods,
Inc. on June 17,  2003.  The Company  sold one  additional  former CPF plant and
related assets to Lakeside  Foods,  Inc. on August 6, 2003.  The  aforementioned
sales to Lakeside Foods, Inc. generated $46 million in cash proceeds,  which was
used to pay down debt.  The Company sold  additional  plant  locations that were
designated as assets held for sale during 2005 and 2004.

3.  Line of Credit

The Company obtains required  short-term  funds through bank borrowings.  On May
27, 2003, in connection  with the acquisition of CPF, the Company entered into a
$200 million  five-year  floating rate secured  revolving  credit  facility (the
"Revolver")  with  various  banks.  During 2005,  the Company  provided its bank
lenders  with notice to reduce the Revolver  from $200 million to $125  million.
During 2006,  the Company and its lenders  extended the term of the Revolver for
an  additional  year with a final  maturity date of May 27, 2009 and the Company
provided  its  lenders  with  notice to further  reduce the  Revolver  from $125
million to $100 million.  Subsequent to the 2006  year-end,  the Company and its
lenders  extended the term of the Revolver  for an  additional  two years with a
final  maturity  date of July 31, 2011.  As of March 31, 2006,  the  outstanding
balance of the Revolver was  $57,029,000,  with a weighted average interest rate
of 6.32%,  and is included in notes payable on the  Consolidated  Balance Sheet.
The Revolver is secured by accounts  receivable  and  inventory  with a carrying
value of  $353,910,000.  There were  $60,733,000  in bank  borrowings  under the
Revolver at March 31, 2005. The Company had  $5,937,000 of  outstanding  standby
letters  of  credit  as of  March  31,  2006  and  2005  that  reduce  borrowing
availability  under the Revolver.  See Note 4,  Long-Term  Debt,  for additional
comments related to the Revolver.

Our credit facilities,  including the Revolver,  contain covenants that restrict
our  ability  and  the  ability  of  our   subsidiaries   to  incur   additional
indebtedness;  pay  dividends  on and  redeem  our  capital  stock;  make  other
restricted  payments,  including  investments;  sell our  assets;  incur  liens;
transfer all or substantially all of our assets;  and enter into  consolidations
or mergers.  Our credit  facilities  also require us to meet  certain  financial
tests,  including minimum fixed charge coverage,  minimum interest coverage, and
maximum total debt ratios.  These financial  requirements  and ratios  generally
become  more  restrictive   over  time,   subject  to  allowances  for  seasonal
fluctuations.  We are in compliance with all such financial covenants,  and were
in compliance  therewith as of March 31, 2006.  The most  restrictive  financial
covenant in the credit agreements is the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio.

As of March 31, 2006, the most restrictive  credit  agreement  limitation on the
Company's  payment of dividends  and other  distributions,  such as purchases of
shares,  to  holders  of  Class A or Class B Common  Stock  is an  annual  total
limitation of $500,000  reduced by aggregate annual dividend  payments  totaling
$23,000,  which  the  Company  presently  pays  on two  outstanding  classes  of
preferred stock.

The Company has five Industrial Revenue Bonds ("IRB's") totaling $23,530,000,
which are secured by direct pay letters of credit. The interest rates in the
table above reflect the direct pay letters of credit costs and amortization of
other related costs for those IRB's. Other than the five IRB's above, the
carrying value of assets pledged for secured debt, including the $100 million
Revolver is $433,795,000.

During the quarter  ended  September  27,  2003,  the Company  refinanced  $42.5
million of debt  outstanding  under the revolving  credit facility with new term
debt from an insurance company.  The new term debt from the insurance company of
$42.5 million,  when combined with the refinancing of existing insurance company
debt  of  $32.5  million,   has  an  interest  rate  of  8.03%,  a  fifteen-year
amortization and a ten-year term.

Debt repayment requirements for the next five fiscal years are:

5.  Leases

The Company leases a portion of its equipment and buildings.  Capitalized leases
consist  primarily  of limited  obligation  special  revenue  bonds,  which bear
interest  rates  from  1.42%  to  4.75%.  Other  leases  include  non-cancelable
operating  leases expiring at various dates through 2016.  Generally,  operating
leases provide for early purchase options one year prior to expiration.

Leased assets under capital leases consist of the following:

===============================================================

Net current  deferred income tax assets of $6,426,000 and $5,669,000 as of March
31, 2006 and 2005,  respectively,  are  recognized in the  Consolidated  Balance
Sheets.  Also recognized are net non-current  deferred income tax liabilities of
$7,538,000 and $11,125,000 as of March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

7.  Stockholders' Equity

Preferred  Stock - The Company  has issued two  classes of voting  participating
convertible  preferred stock, par values of $.025,  which are convertible at the
holders'  option on a  one-for-one  basis into  shares of Class A Common  Stock,
subject to  antidilution  adjustments.  Both  classes  have the right to receive
dividends and  distributions  at a rate equal to the amount of any dividends and
distributions  declared or made on the Class A Common Stock.  No dividends  were
declared  or paid on this  preferred  stock in  fiscal  2006,  2005 or 2004.  In
addition, this preferred stock has certain distribution rights upon liquidation.

One class of  participating  preferred stock has a liquidation  value of $12 per
share and has 3,436,809 shares outstanding as of March 31, 2006 after conversion
of 6,550 shares into Class A Common Stock during  fiscal 2006.  The second class
of  participating  preferred  stock was issued as partial  consideration  of the
purchase  price  in the CPF  acquisition.  The  967,742  shares  issued  in that
acquisition  were valued at $16.60 per share which  represented  the then market
value  of the  Class A  Common  Stock  into  which  the  preferred  shares  were
immediately convertible.  This class of shares has a liquidation value of $15.50
per  share  and has  853,500  shares  outstanding  as of March  31,  2006  after
conversion of 114,242 shares into Class A Common Stock during fiscal 2006.

The Company  also has an  aggregate  of  2,633,333  shares of  non-participating
preferred  stock  authorized for issuance.  There are three classes of preferred
stock designated as of March 31, 2006, including 1,000,000 shares of Class A 10%
cumulative,  convertible, voting preferred stock ("Class A preferred"),  400,000
shares of Class B 10% cumulative,  convertible, voting preferred stock ("Class B
Preferred")  and 200,000 shares of 6% cumulative,  voting  preferred  stock ("6%
preferred").  Each share of designated  preferred stock has as many votes as the
number of common shares into which it is convertible and a stated value of $0.25
per share.

There are 407,240 shares of Class A preferred  issued and outstanding with a par
value of $.025 which are convertible  into one share of Class A Common Stock and
one share of Class B Common  stock  for  every 20  shares of Class A  preferred.
There are 400,000 shares of Class B preferred  issued and outstanding with a par
value of $.025 which are convertible  into one share of Class A Common Stock and
one share of Class B Common  stock  for  every 30  shares of Class B  preferred.
There are 200,000 shares of 6% preferred issued and outstanding with a par value
of $.25,  which are callable at their par value at any time at the option of the
Company.  The  Company  paid  dividends  of  $20,181  on the Class A and Class B
preferred  and $3,000 on the 6% preferred  during each of fiscal 2006,  2005 and
2004.

Common  Stock - The  Class A Common  Stock  and the  Class B Common  Stock  have
substantially identical rights with respect to any dividends or distributions of
cash or property  declared on shares of common stock, and rank equally as to the
right to receive  proceeds on  liquidation  or  dissolution of the Company after
payment of the Company's  indebtedness  and liquidation  right to the holders of
preferred  shares.  However,  holders of Class B Common Stock retain a full vote
per share,  whereas  the holders of Class A Common  Stock have voting  rights of
1/20th  of one vote per share on all  matters  as to which  shareholders  of the
Company are entitled to vote.

Unissued shares of common stock reserved for conversion privileges of designated
non-participating  preferred stock were 33,695 of both Class A and Class B as of
March 31, 2006 and 2005. Additionally, there were 4,290,309 and 4,411,101 shares
of Class A reserved for conversion of the  Participating  Preferred  Stock as of
March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

8.  Retirement Plans

The Company has a  noncontributory  defined  benefit  pension plan  covering all
employees  who meet certain  age-entry  requirements  and work a stated  minimum
number of hours per year.  Annual  contributions are made to the Plan sufficient
to satisfy legal funding requirements.

The Plan's accumulated benefit obligation was $72,552,000 at March 31, 2006, and
$66,941,000 at March 31, 2005.

The prior service costs are amortized on a straight-line  basis over the average
remaining service period of active  participants.  Gains and losses in excess of
10% of the greater of the benefit  obligation  and the  market-related  value of
assets  are  amortized  over the  average  remaining  service  period  of active
participants.

The assumptions  used to measure the Company's  benefit  obligation are shown in
the following table:

Expected Return on Plan Assets
The expected rate of return on Plan assets is 8.75%.  The Company  expects 8.75%
to fall within the 40-to-50 percentile range of returns on investment portfolios
with asset  diversification  similar to that of the pension  plan's target asset
allocation.

Investment Policy and Strategy
The Company  maintains an investment policy designed to achieve a long-term rate
of  return,   including   investment   income   through   dividends  and  equity
appreciation,  sufficient  to meet the  actuarial  requirements  of the  pension
plans.  The Company  seeks to  accomplish  its return  objectives  by  prudently
investing in a  diversified  portfolio  of public  company  equities  with broad
industry  representation seeking to provide long-term growth consistent with the
performance of relevant market indices, as well as maintain an adequate level of
liquidity  for pension  distributions  as they fall due.  The  strategy of being
fully  invested in equities has  historically  provided  greater rates of return
over extended  periods of time. The Plan holds the Company's common stock with a
fair market value of $5,310,000 as of March 31, 2006.

Cash Flows

The Company does not expect to have to fund the Plan in 2007.

Estimated future benefit payments reflecting expected future service for the
fiscal years ending March 31:

                  2007                      $  3,077
                  2008                         3,256

                  2012-2016                   22,290

The Company has Employees'  Savings Plans 401(k) covering all employees who meet
certain  age-entry  requirements  and work a stated  minimum number of hours per
year.  Participants may make  contributions up to the legal limit. The Company's
matching  contributions are  discretionary.  Costs charged to operations for the
Company's  matching  contributions  amounted  to  $1,240,000,   $1,519,000,  and
$1,708,000, in fiscal 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively.

9.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount and estimated fair values of the Company's debt are
summarized as follows:

                                2006                2005

Capital leases, including
  current portion          4,445      3,704     6,582     5,796

The estimated fair values were determined as follows:

     Long-term debt and capital lease obligations - The quoted market prices for
     similar debt or current rates offered to the company for debt with the same
     maturities.

     Notes payable - The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the
     short-term maturity of the notes.

All other financial instruments of the Company have estimated fair value equal
to carrying cost due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

10. Common Stock of Moog Inc.

During 2005,  the Company sold its  investment  in the common stock of Moog Inc.
The sale provided proceeds of $4,578,000 and a realized gain of $3,862,000.  The
Company's  investment  in the  Class  B  Common  Stock  of Moog  Inc.,  totaling
$4,465,000  as of March 31, 2004,  was included in  marketable  securities.  The
gross  unrealized  holding gains were $3,749,000 and $1,967,000 in 2004 and 2003

disposal of property,  plant and equipment of $1,938,000 and a $143,000 non-cash
charge  reflecting  the  write  down of the  corresponding  pro-rata  amount  of
deferred  financing  cost due to reducing the Revolver from $125 million to $100
million.

Other income in 2005 consisted of a gain on the sale of Moog stock of $3,862,000
and a gain of the sale of  certain  fixed  assets of  $607,000.  Other  expenses

corresponding  pro-rata  amount of deferred  financing  cost due to reducing the
Revolver from $200 million to $125 million.

12.  Segment Information

The Company  manages its business on the basis of one  reportable  segment - the
processing  and sale of  vegetables.  The Company  markets  its  product  almost
entirely  in the United  States.  The Company  has an  Alliance  Agreement  with
General Mills  Operations,  Inc. (GMOI) whereby the Company processes canned and
frozen  vegetables for GMOI under the Green Giant brand name.  GMOI continues to
be responsible for all of the sales,  marketing,  and customer service functions
for the Green Giant products.  In 2006,  2005, and 2004, the sale of Green Giant
vegetables  accounted  for  27%,  26%,  and  28% of  net  sales.  The  following
information  is presented in  accordance  with SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosure  about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information":

The  vegetable  component,  consisting  of GMOI,  canned  vegetables  and frozen
vegetables,  represents  99%,  99% and 98% of  assets  and 92%,  101% and 98% of
pre-tax earnings in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

13.  Legal Proceedings and Other Contingencies

In the ordinary  course of its business,  the Company is made a party to certain
legal proceedings  seeking monetary  damages,  including  proceedings  involving
product liability claims,  worker's compensation and other employee claims, tort
and other general liability claims, for which it carries  insurance,  as well as
patent infringement and related litigation.  While it is not feasible to predict
or determine the ultimate outcome of these matters, the Company does not believe
that an adverse decision in any of these legal proceedings would have a material
adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company is one of a number of business and local  government  entities which
contributed  waste  materials to a landfill in Yates County in upstate New York,
which was operated by a party  unrelated to the Company  primarily in the 1970's
through the early 1980's.  The Company's  wastes were  primarily  food and juice
products.  The landfill contained some hazardous materials and was remediated by
the State of New York. The New York Attorney General has advised the Company and
other known  non-governmental  waste  contributors that New York has sustained a
total remediation cost of $4.9 million and seeks recovery of half that cost from
the non-governmental  waste contributors.  The Company is one of four identified
contributors who  cooperatively are investigating the history of the landfill so
as to identify and seek out other  potentially  responsible  parties who are not
defunct and are financially able to contribute to the non-governmental  parties'
reimbursement liability. Since this search is not expected to be completed until
November 1, 2006, the Company's liability cannot be definitively estimated.  The
Company does not believe that any  ultimate  settlement  in excess of the amount
accrued  will have a material  impact on its  financial  position  or results of
operations.

In early 1999,  the Company  sold to Tree Top,  Inc.  its  applesauce  business,
including a plant in Prosser, Benton County,  Washington.  In the sale agreement
governing the  transaction,  the Company  represented to Tree Top that it was in
compliance  with all  environmental  laws. In 2003,  the Benton County Clean Air
Authority  ("BCAA") brought an enforcement action against Tree Top under Title V
of the Clean Air Act and related  State of  Washington  statutes,  alleging that
Tree Top was  violating  the Clean Air Act by failing to register  the  facility
with BCAA pursuant to Title V. The BCAA also alleged that the facility failed to
provide BCAA with a required  notice of  construction  when it replaced a fourth
boiler in the Prosser  plant in 1988 when the  Company was the sole owner.  Tree
Top has  reached  a  settlement  with the BCAA  which,  according  to Tree  Top,
requires  Tree Top to pay  penalties  and make  modifications  to equipment at a
total cost of approximately  $493,000.  Tree Top has made a formal demand on the
Company for reimbursement of the entire amount.  The Company disputes Tree Top's
assertion  that the Company is liable for the total cost.  The Company  does not
believe that any  resolution  of this demand will have a material  impact on its
financial position or results of operations.

During 2004, various claims totaling  approximately  $3,211,000 were asserted by
the Fleming Companies  against the Company and a subsidiary  acquired in 2003 in
the  Bankruptcy  proceedings  in the U.S.  Bankruptcy  Court for the District of
Delaware  for (i)  receipt of  allegedly  preferential  payments  under the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code ($1,292,000),  (ii) receipt of alleged overpayments ($1,139,000)
and (iii) amounts  allegedly  owing under various  vendor  promotional  programs
($780,000). During 2005, the Company settled and paid these claims for $399,000.

On June 15, 2004, an accident occurred at the Company's  aircraft hangar located
at the Yates County  Airport in Penn Yan, New York.  The damaged  aircraft  were
repaired  through  insurance  proceeds,  and this matter did not have a material
impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

The Company has six  collective  bargaining  agreements  with three union locals
covering  approximately  665 of its  full-time  employees.  The  terms  of these
agreements  result in wages and benefits,  which are  substantially the same for
comparable  positions for the Company's  non-union  employees.  Four  collective
bargaining agreements expire in calendar 2008. One agreement expires in calendar
2009, and one agreement expires in calendar 2010.

14.  Plant Restructuring

After a  comprehensive  review of its  production  capacities  following the CPF
acquisition in 2004, the Company completed a plant restructuring program in 2005
resulting in a  restructuring  charge of $7,678,000.  The  restructuring  charge
consisted of a non-cash  impairment  charge of $6,952,000  and a cash  severance
charge  of  $726,000,   which  are  included  in  Plant   Restructuring  in  the
Consolidated  Statements  of Net  Earnings.  The  Company  used two  methods  to
determine fair value:  (1) no value was assigned to machinery and equipment that
could not be  redeployed  within the Company and where there was no ready market
for the asset;  and (2)  quoted  prices or prices  for  similar  assets for real
estate.

This restructuring  program principally involved the closure of three processing
facilities,  including a green bean plant in upstate New York and corn plants in
Wisconsin  and  Washington.  In  addition,  the Company  restructured  the newly
acquired  Payette,  Idaho facility through the removal of canned meat production
to  focus  exclusively  on dry  beans.  The  rationalization  of  the  Company's
productive  capacity has: (1) improved the Company's  overall cost structure and
competitive  position;  (2) addressed the excess capacity situation arising from
the acquisition of CPF; and (3) mitigated the effect of  inflationary  pressures
on the Company's raw material inputs such as steel and fuel.

The  closure  of the  Washington  corn  processing  facility  coincided  with an
amendment to the Alliance  Agreement with GMOI. Under the above  amendment,  the
Blue Earth,  Minnesota facility was removed from the Alliance Agreement due to a
reduction in GMOI volume  requirements  and will be operated by the Company as a
non-Alliance facility. Additionally, GMOI agreed to reimburse the Company in the
future for remaining  lease and  depreciation  costs at the Blue Earth  facility
which, on a net present value basis,  approximate  the closure costs  associated
with the Washington facility.

With the closure of the Washington corn processing facility in the fall of 2004,
the Company's labeling and warehousing  requirements at the Salem, Oregon leased
distribution  facility were dramatically reduced. In 2006, the Company announced
the phase out of the Salem labeling  operation which resulted in a restructuring
charge of  $1,754,000  consisting  of a provision  for future lease  payments of
$1,306,000,  a cash  severance  charge of  $369,000,  and a non-cash  impairment
charge of $79,000.  The  Company  intends to use a portion of the  facility  for
warehousing and will attempt to sublease the remaining unutilized portion of the
facility until the February 2008 expiration of the lease.

The fiscal 2006 asparagus harvest, completed in the first quarter, represented a
partial  pack as GMOI was in  process  of moving  the  production  of  asparagus
offshore  from the Dayton,  Washington  manufacturing  facility.  As fiscal 2006
represents the final year of operation for the Dayton,  Washington facility, the
Company and GMOI have negotiated a definitive  agreement  related to the closure
of this facility.  Under the terms of the  agreement,  any costs incurred by the
Company related to the asparagus production prior to March 31, 2006 will be paid
by GMOI. The Company shall retain  ownership of the real estate  associated with
the Dayton  facility.  In addition,  the  manufacturing  equipment of the Dayton
facility  shall  either be  conveyed  to GMOI,  redeployed  by the  Company,  or
salvaged.  Lastly, GMOI reduced the principal balance of the secured nonrecourse
subordinated  promissory note by $466,000 to $42,618,000,  which  represents the
net book value of the equipment to be conveyed to GMOI or salvaged.

During 2006, the Company sold the previously closed corn processing  facility in
Washington  for $0.5 million in cash and a $3.6  million  note which  carries an
interest rate of 8% and is due in full on May 14, 2007.  This note is secured by
a  mortgage  on the  property.  The  Company  accounted  for the sale  under the
installment  method.  During the first quarter of 2006, $0.4 million of the gain
was included in Other Expense  (Income),  net and an additional  $2.8 million of
the gain on this sale was deferred in Other Long-Term Liabilities.

The following table summarizes the restructuring and related asset impairment
charges recorded and the accruals established during 2005 and 2006:

Company's  payment of dividends  and other  distributions,  such as purchases of
shares,  to  holders  of  Class A or Class B Common  Stock  is an  annual  total
limitation of $500,000,  reduced by aggregate annual dividend  payments totaling
$23,000,  which  the  Company  presently  pays  on two  outstanding  classes  of
preferred  stock.  Payment of  dividends to common  stockholders  is made at the
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and depends, among other factors,
on earnings; capital requirements;  and the operating and financial condition of
the  Company.  The  Company has not  declared or paid a common  dividend in many
years.

The  following is a summary of the  unaudited  interim  results of operations by
quarter:

Earnings  for the fourth  quarter have  historically  reflected  adjustments  of
previously  estimated  raw  material  costs and  production  levels.  Due to the
dependence  on fruit and  vegetable  yields  of the  Company's  food  processing
segment, interim costing must be estimated.
