It depends on the planted and surviving population in the field, but the US average is around 30,000 plants per acre. Some growers are experimenting with higher populations of about 40,000 plants per acre, but it's not common yet.

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.
