How many pounds of ear corn make a bushel?

There is no absolute answer to this, since the ears of corn can vary so much in size, shape, and weight. However, the general rule of thumb is to multiply the shelled corn weight by 0.8. Since a bushel of shelled corn should weigh 56 pounds, then a bushel of ear corn should weigh around 45 pounds. This, of course, refers only to field, or dent, corn, not sweet corn, popcorn, or any of the other types.

How many bushels of ear corn are in a ton?

Ear corn is somewhat variable by its very nature, so the answer to this question can only be estimated. On average, shelled corn should weigh around 56 pounds US to the bushel. Ear corn is approximately one bushel = 0.8 bushel of shelled corn. Therefore, there should be around 45 bushels to the ton.The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that a bushel of ear corn weighs 70 lbs/ bushel. 2000/70#=28.57 bushels of ear corn to the ton.Although the two answers seem to be contradictory, they're not. The first answer assumes that one places ear corn into a one bushel container ("one bushel" being a volumetric measurement) and then shells it out, therefore making less than one bushel of shelled out corn. The USDA assumes that the user wants one bushel of shelled out grain after shelling, and so they add in the weight of the cobs to the shelled grain. It just depends on how you go about it.

How much does a bushel weight?

A bushel of shelled corn weighs 56 pounds (25.401 kilograms).A bushel actually used to be a volumetric measurement but due to inconsistency in volumes between crops like corn, wheat or soybeans, it was changed to 60 lbs, then 56 lbs.Somewhere between 50 and 100 pounds. Yeah, that sounds like a pretty big variance, and it is. The key variable here is the moisture content of the corn. At 5% it would weight 49.81 pounds. At 50% moisture, it would weight 94.64 pounds. But for marketing purposes, the USDA specifies one bushel of dried, shelled field corn weighs 56 pounds and is at 15% moisture content. All values are based on that measurement.
