Seneca Foods Corporation
Employees’ Savings Plan
Marion, New York
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Seneca Foods Corporation Employees' Savings Plan (“the Plan”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. Seneca Foods Corporation Employees' Savings Plan’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule listed in the foregoing Table of Contents is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

SENECA FOODS CORPORATION EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following description of Seneca Foods Corporation Employees' Savings Plan ("the Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan intended to qualify as a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Substantially all employees of Seneca Foods Corporation ("the Company") are eligible to participate after completion of twelve months employment and attainment of age eighteen. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
Contributions
Each year, participants may contribute up to 60 percent of pretax annual compensation, as defined by the Plan. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Company may contribute additional amounts at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company contribution is invested directly in the Seneca Foods Corporation Employer Stock Fund and is allocated to participants based on the participants’ pro rata share of total participating payroll.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of (a) the Company’s contributions and (b) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
Vesting
Participants are vested immediately in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company’s contribution portion of their accounts is based on years of continuous service. A participant is 100 percent vested after three years of credited service.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance, whichever is less. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at rates that range from 4% to 9.5%, which are commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan.
SENECA FOODS CORPORATION EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)
Participant Loans (Continued)
Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions. The term of the loan should not exceed five years except in the case of a loan used to acquire a dwelling unit that is to be the principal residence of the participant.
Payment of Benefits
On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a participant may elect to receive an amount equal to the value of the participant’s vested interest in his or her account in a current lump sum if the balance is less than $5,000 or a deferred lump sum if the balance is greater than $5,000. For termination of service due to other reasons, a participant may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a lump sum distribution, however, if the value exceeds $1,000, no distribution shall be made before the participant’s 65th birthday without written consent.
Forfeited Accounts
At December 31, 2009 and 2008 forfeited non-vested accounts totaled approximately $20,000 and $7,000, respectively. These accounts will be used to reduce future employer contributions. Also, in 2009, employer contributions were reduced by $6,960 from forfeited nonvested accounts.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
Investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note F for discussion of fair value measurements.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net (depreciation) appreciation includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
Operating Expenses
All expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid by the Company.
NOTE C - TAX STATUS
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on April 30, 1999, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
NOTE D - INVESTMENTS
The following presents investments that represent 5 percent or more of the Plan’s net assets at December 31:

2009 2008
Net assets:
Seneca Foods Corporation Employer Stock Fund $13,846,622 $11,379,669

NOTE F – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value in the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits. The methods used to measure fair value may produce an amount that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The fair value measurement accounting literature establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels: Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and have highest priority, Level 2 inputs consist of observable inputs other than quoted prices for identical assets, and Level 3 inputs have the lowest priority. The Plan uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair value of its investments. When available, the Plan measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. Level 3 inputs were only used when Level 1 or Level 2 inputs were not available.
Level 1 Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of mutual funds is based on quoted net asset values of the shares held by the Plan at year-end.
Level 2 Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of collective investment funds and the Seneca Foods Corporation Employer Stock Fund for which quoted market prices are not available are valued at the underlying asset value of the funds at year-end.
Level 3 Measurements
The fair value of participant loans approximates the amortized cost of the loans because the loans are secured by each respective participant’s account balance. The following table provides further details of the Level 3 fair value measurements.
