NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2001

1. Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements


In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal
and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Company as of June 30, 2001 and results of operations
for the three month periods ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000. All
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated
in consolidation. The March 31, 2001 balance sheet was derived from
audited financial statements.

The results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30,
2001 and July 1, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1
to the Company's financial statements in the 2001 Seneca Foods
Corporation Annual Report and 10-K.

Other footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes included in the Company's 2001 Annual Report and
10-K.

2. Off-Season Reserve is the excess of absorbed expenses over incurred
expenses to date. The seasonal nature of the Company's Food Processing
business results in a timing difference between expenses (primarily
overhead expenses) incurred and absorbed into product cost. All
Off-Season Reserve balances are zero at fiscal year end.

3. Comprehensive income consisted solely of Net Earnings and Net Unrealized
Gain Change on Moog, Inc. Stock. The following table provides the results
for the periods presented:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

June 30, 2001

Results of Operations:

Sales:
Total Sales reflect an increase of 1.2% for the first three months versus 2000.
The Company's Alliance business sales dollars increased by 1.6%. Non-Alliance
vegetable sales dollars increased by 1.7% and sales quantities increased 4.2%.

Costs and Expenses:
The following table shows costs and expenses as a percentage of sales:

Three Months Ended
------------------
6/30/01 7/1/00
------- ------
Cost of Product Sold 94.0% 91.2%
Selling 3.1 3.7
Administrative 0.7 0.8
Interest Expense 3.7 3.6
----------------------
101.5% 99.3%
======================

Lower selling prices as compared to the prior year, especially in the Private
Label and Food Service businesses, were a major contributing factor in lower
profitability.

Income Taxes:
The effective tax rate used in 2002 and 2001 is 36%.

Financial Condition: The financial condition of the Company is summarized in the
following table and explanatory review (In Thousands):

For the Quarter For the Year
Ended June Ended March
---------- -----------
2001 2000 2001 2000
---- ---- ---- ----
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>

Working Capital Balance $164,944 $173,467 $163,367 $168,972
Quarter Change 1,577 4,495 - -
Notes Payable 38,045 10,470 24,500 -
Long-Term Debt 174,495 189,834 171,346 189,968
Current Ratio 2.38:1 2.56:1 2.49:1 3.05:1
</TABLE>

The change in the Working Capital for the June 2001 quarter from the June 2000
quarter is largely due to lower earnings in the current year quarter than the
prior year quarter ($1,286,000 loss as compared to $1,290,000 earnings last
year) partially offset by lower capital expenditures, which were $4.3 million in
2001 as compared to $7.3 million in 2000. In 2000, $2.3 million of these capital
expenditures were funded via a capital escrow account, which was a result of an
Industrial Revenue Bond issued the prior year.

During the first quarter of the current year, a $3,200,000 Industrial
Development Bond was issued to finance a capital expansion of the Yakima,
Washington plant related to snack chips.

See Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for further details.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

June 30, 2001


Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk:

The Company has not experienced any material changes in Market Risk since our
March 31, 2001 report.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in
this report are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act (PSLRA) of 1995. The Company wishes to take advantage of
the "safe harbor" provisions of the PSLRA by cautioning that numerous important
factors which involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to
economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the
Company's operations, markets, products, services and prices, and other factors
discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
in the future, could affect the Company's actual results and could cause its
actual consolidated results to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statement made by, or on behalf of, the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Standard

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Since the Company does not have
Goodwill on it's balance sheet, this statement is not expected to have a
material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
