On average 3,120 lbs per acre or 1.56 tons
The typical recommendation for optimal barley yield in agricultural practices is to plant around 80-100 pounds of barley per acre.
92.344 pounds of protein per acre. As a side note, a US farmer who is producing only 5,432 pounds of corn per acre will not be in business very long, since that is only 97 bushels per acre. In 2010, US farmers will need to average over 170 bushels per acre just to break even on input costs.
The US average for barley is about 65 bushels per acre, with a test weight of 48 pounds per bushel. This amounts to 3,120 pounds per acre, which is 1.56 tons per acre. Just multiply that times the number of acres in the field and you'll have your answer.There is no "average size field" in the US. Depending on which part of the country you're in, an average field size can be anywhere from one acre in organic farming areas to as much as 1,000 acres in the plains states.
The average figure for one acre of farmland is 1/8 person per acre, however this is an average of all commoditites such as corn, wheat, rice, oats, barley, cattle, sheep, hogs, fruits, vegetables, etc. Also keep in mind that wheat is not an entire peron's diet, but wheat, a medium yielding crop, at an average of 80 bushels to the acre and a test weight of 60 pounds per when at 13.5% moisture, a bushel can produce 4800 pounds per acre.
The number of bags of barley per acre that equals one ton will vary depending on the weight of each bag. If each bag typically weighs 48 pounds, then it would take around 44 bags per acre to equal one ton (2000 pounds).
We are considering growing Barley for Whiskey in Bucks County, PA. How much barley can you grow on one acre of land? Thank you> Laurie
There's too many variables here to be able to answer this question. However, just for example, the US average yield from all states of all barley types for the period from 2006 through 2011 is 66.7 bushels per acre, according to the USDA.
