While the USDA Farm Services Agency may have a specific number "on the books" for each program crop such as corn, soybeans, wheat, or cotton, only the farmer and the agent can really put a true number to it.

The best way to find crop residue quantity is to go out to at least four separate representative areas of the field, mark off very specific areas, say, 20 feet by 20 feet, count and weigh the residue in those areas, and then multiply it out to give a field-wide average. It's generally best to seek assistance from your county agent.

How many bushels of field corn seed does it take to plant one acre of crop land?

Most farmers in the U.S. plant field corn by the seed count, not by the bushel. However, since most farmers plant somewhere around 30,000 seeds per acre, you can figure the bushels thus: 30,000 seeds divide by 2,000 seeds per pound equals about 15 pounds divided by 56 pounds of corn per bushel equals about 1/4 bushel per acre. There are a great many factors, including seed germination percentage, which could change that figure.


What is the yield of rice per acre?

World average - about 4 tonnes per hectare, world record - about 10. Yield is complicated by the fact that 2 crops per year is common, and 3 are possible under ideal weather and field conditions. Crop scientists estimate a realistic maximum for the "perfect" hybrid variety at over 20 tonnes per hectare.
