This depends entirely on variables. Depending on the seed size, the number or kernals in a 50lb bag will vary. Once you know how many kernals are in the bag (its written on the bag) than you just divide that number by the planting population.

Several uses come to mind. For one, the perimeter of a building, multiplied by the wall height gives an estimate of how much paint, siding, sheathing plywood, etc. are needed to do some work. For things with a circular shape, say a small lake, you can tell the distance across the lake by walking the perimeter and dividing that distance by pi to get the diameter, i.e., distance . Doing the same kind of thing on a flag pole allows you to decide how long the screws must be to mount a flag pulley. Another is using the perimeter of something like a lawn or garden to estimate how much seed, fertilizer, or other material is needed when you know that it should be used as so much per acre/square yard/square foot or other area.
No.add And interestingly enough, apple seeds seldom breed true to the parent. If you find a desirable 'sport' on your apple tree, it may be propagated from the wood of that twig, not the seed.
Oh, isn't that just a tiny little measurement, friend? Picture a small bead or a tiny seed - that's about how long 7mm is. It's just a wee bit bigger than the tip of a pencil, but it can still hold so much beauty and potential.
At 5 dollars a bushel getting 250 bushels per acre around 600 dollars considering the cost of seed at around 300 dollars a bag, and diesel to operate the tractor, sprayer, and combine.

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.
Since the question asks how much corn CAN be grown, it implies what the limitations to production might be. While not every field or farm can achieve this kind of production, the world record for non-irrigated corn production is 442 bushels per acre. As always, this record will probably be broken again as seed companies and farmers continue to improve genetics and production practices.

A regular bag of seed corn weighs around 50 lbs depending on variety
One corn seed equals one corn stalk, if all requirements (soil warmth, moisture, sunlight, etc.) are met.
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.
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.
