Corn in a wagon

[BenA]

About how much corn do you think is in this wagon? I have no idea on sizes. I just thought one of you farmers might have a rough ballpark idea. I was just curious.

Enough to “bring all the boys to the yard” for a while.

Sorry, not helpful!

I am not a farmer. But in ear corn like that.....I doubt that you have 50 bushels of shelled corn. (? dunno for sure).

It's coming off my field and being sold by the farmer planting and picking it. He sells it to local hunters or to people for their animals. I was just wondering about how much is being produced. It looks like he's picking about a cart per week.

Quick math would be 50 bushels (?) at $7 bu = $350 / load. Best guess. Keep in mind someone has to shell this corn....but that is fairly cheap if you have the machine for it. Not sure what ear corn sells for. Likely around 1/2 or less of shelled corn?
