ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

Land O’Lakes, Inc., a Minnesota cooperative corporation (the “Company”), recently provided an update on the ongoing repositioning of the retail businesses owned and operated by Agriliance LLC (a 50-50 joint venture between the Company and CHS Inc.). The Company noted that Agriliance entered into a purchase agreement with Tennessee Farmers Cooperative that contemplates the sale of eleven retail locations that span four states (Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas and Missouri). Subject to customary closing conditions, the parties expect this transaction to close on or about August 31, 2009. Additional transaction terms were not disclosed.

The Company also noted, that in addition to the announced and ongoing efforts to sell retail locations to third parties, a portion of Agriliance’s remaining restructuring will ultimately involve specific location purchases by each of CHS (sites in Western Texas) and the Company (sites in Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana). These transaction details have not yet been finalized, but the Company anticipates that further information will be furnished within the next several months, assuming mutually acceptable agreements can be negotiated.

These recent announcements follow the one the Company made on April 9, 2009, when the Company noted that Agri-AFC LLC, a joint venture between Alabama Farmers Cooperative and Winfield Solutions, LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) agreed to acquire nine of Agriliance’s retail centers located in Georgia and Mississippi. Agri-AFC has been operating these locations under a lease agreement for the past several months, and is expected to complete the asset transfer on or about July 31, 2009.

As a result of Agriliance’s current and expected restructuring efforts, the Company anticipates that it will receive, on an aggregated basis, cash proceeds of approximately $100 million between now and March 31, 2010, which will consist of periodic distributions from Agriliance, net of the cost of the acquired properties and associated working capital.
