     Item 3 is amended as follows:

     On May 16, 2003, Mr. Romo transferred 2,157,361 shares of Class A Common Stock to Banca Afirme, S.A., Institucion de Banca Multiple, Afirme Grupo Financiero, as trustee, under the Irrevocable Administration and Payment Trust Number 167-5 (Fidiecomiso Irrevocable Administracion y Pago Numero 167-5). In addition, Mr. Romo has 239,178 options for shares of Class A Common Stock (exercisable within 60 days of the filing of this Amendment No. 3) under the Stock Option Plan.

ITEM 4. Purpose of Transactions.

     Item 4 is amended as follows:

     On June 2, 2003, Seminis, Inc. (“Seminis”) announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger (the Merger Agreement”), dated as of May 30, 2003, with Seminis Acquisition LLC (“Parent”) and Seminis Merger Corp. (“Merger Sub”), both affiliates of Savia, S.A. de C.V. (“Savia”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Seminis (the “Merger”) and Parent will acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Seminis. In order to facilitate the Merger, Savia and certain other Seminis stockholders, pursuant to a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), will contribute all of their shares of Seminis common stock to Parent in exchange for an equity interest in Parent. Public holders of approximately 15.8 million Seminis shares will receive cash consideration of $3.78 per share in cash in the Merger. Immediately following the Merger, Parent will, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), sell to certain investment funds managed by Fox Paine & Company, LLC, a San Francisco-based private equity firm, approximately 75% of the Seminis common shares following completion of the transactions for $3.40 per share in cash. Certain entities affiliated with Alfonso Romo Garza, Seminis’ and Savia’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will receive, pursuant to two agreements to be executed at the closing of the Merger, co-investment rights to purchase, subject to certain conditions, up to 34% of Seminis following the Merger. Mr. Romo and certain other Seminis stockholders representing more than 85% of the currently outstanding voting power of Seminis have entered into a voting agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) to vote in favor of the Merger.

     As part of the transaction, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger and pursuant to an amended and restated exchange agreement (the “Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement”), Savia will exchange its Seminis Class C preferred shares for approximately 37.7 million shares of Seminis common stock, after which the total number of outstanding Seminis common shares will be approximately 101.7 million.

     The preceding is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement and the Contribution Agreement, each of which is incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof, is filed with this Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D as Exhibit C and Exhibit D, respectively.
