ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

1. QUARTERLY OPERATING REVENUES BY SEGMENT (UNAUDITED)

     The Company has elected to report quarterly operating revenues by segment
for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1995 as a result of the change in fiscal
year end. The new fiscal quarters end in November, February, May and August.
Seed operating revenues are concentrated mainly in the second and third fiscal
quarters and Crop Protection operating revenues are concentrated mainly in the
third and fourth quarters. Second and third quarter seed operating revenues
include estimates for returns that generally occur during the fourth quarter.
Consequently, fourth quarter seed operating revenues include adjustments for
those earlier estimates. Operating revenues for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1995 are as follows:



                                               Quarter

2. CHANGE IN STATE OF INCORPORATION FROM DELAWARE TO CALIFORNIA

     The Company was reincorporated from Delaware to California on October 26,
1995 (the "Reincorporation") in accordance with an Agreement and Plan of Merger.
The Reincorporation was approved by the Company's Board of Directors and
shareholders on April 20, 1995. The Reincorporation was accomplished by merging
Mycogen Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Mycogen-Delaware") into a wholly-
owned California subsidiary called Mycogen California, Inc. ("Mycogen-
California") formed for purposes of the Reincorporation. Each outstanding share
of Mycogen-Delaware's capital stock was exchanged for a corresponding share of
capital stock of Mycogen-California. Upon the completion of the Reincorporation,
Mycogen-California changed its name to Mycogen Corporation, a California
corporation.
