ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

Land O’Lakes, Inc., a Minnesota cooperative corporation (the “Company”) today announced that it successfully completed the final phase of the refinancing project it announced on a Form 8-K issued on October 2, 2009 and further updated on a Form 8-K issued on October 29, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of an irrevocable notice sent to note holders on October 29, 2009, the Company effected a complete redemption of its 8.75% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2011 and its 9.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2010 as of December 15, 2009. $323.7 million of notes were redeemed at par, plus accrued interest.

The Company funded the redemption via the issuance of $325,000,000 of privately placed notes on December 15, 2009. The notes were issued and sold in three series, as follows: $155,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.24% notes, due December 2016, (ii) $85,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.67% notes, due December 2019 and (iii) $85,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.77% notes, due December 2021.

As noted previously, the redemption of the 8.75% Senior Unsecured Notes and the 9.00% Senior Secured Notes effectively terminates the Company’s obligation to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the Company does not plan to file any further reports with the SEC.
