<<12 ears of corn cost about $1.00. How many ears in a bushel?>>

They don't go by ears anymore, combines take the kernels off the ears. A bushel weighs 60 pounds and has about 70,000 kernels.

BTW, combines are saving the wrong thing. I see in the stores the HUSKS from one ear of corn are selling for $1. Something to do with Mexican food.
