According to the USDA, one acre of corn removes about 8 tons of carbon dioxide from the air in a growing season. At 180 bushels per acre, corn produces enough oxygen to supply a year's needs for 131 people.
You say trees can produce enought oxygen for 18 people a day but you will not tell me how much oxygen corn can produce becouse corn is different well trees are much more differant then corn is so you must not know & want to make me look dumb. My guess is you are with the GOP and are the person that just wants to keep your job but not work. so one more time If the corn field will produce 200 bushel of corn an acre how many people can live off of that much oxygen? CHEERS
well according to my calculations 2,998,574,635.
The amount of nitrogen fertilizer, urea being one form, applied to corn varies widely by the type of corn and the soil type to which it is applied. It can range from as little as 20 kilograms per acre to as much as 250 kg/Ac.
It is much easier to control the hydrogen and oxygen during direct combustion than during their reaction in a fuel cell.

21% of the atmosphere is oxygen.
Oxygen is much more reactive than nitrogen, somewhat more common than nitrogen, and tends to form much more stable compounds than nitrogen.

It depends.
How much corn does Iowa produce? In 2005, Iowa corn farmers grew alomst 2.2 billion bushels of corn on 12.5 million acres of land. (See Harvesting Corn to find out how much corn is in a bushel!)
It varies a lot depending on the condition of the corn crop, but 15 to 30 tons is common.

About 60% of our oxygen is produced by phytoplakton.
An acre of land can produce thousands of pounds of food every year. The production of the land is very dependent upon the type of soil and the climate.
Corn and soybeans can be grown in the western US, and corn is frequently grown in the vicinity of livestock operations such as feedlots. However, since most of the west is much drier than eastern parts of the nation, all crop production depends on irrigation. The money earned from corn and soybeans is, quite simply, considerably less than higher value produce crops. If a farmer can earn $500 per acre profit from a potato crop, for example, why would he limit himself to a $100 per acre profit growing corn? Many areas simply do not have access to sufficient water to irrigate a corn crop.

It depends on how good the corn is and how much corn grain the field has produced, but it could be as much as $3,000. This assumes you are asking about ordinary field corn. Specialty types of corn can be worth much more. I know of one instance where a farmer received over $5,000 per acre (gross value before input costs taken out) for a crop of hybrid sweet corn seed.
