The Weight of Corn calculator computes the approximate weight of a volume of corn based on the volume (b) and average pounds per bushel of corn.

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

• (b) Volume of corn
• (PPB) Pound per Bushel

Weight of Corn (WC):  The calculator returns the weight in tons (U.S. tons = 2,000 lbs). However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

The formula for the Price of Corn is:

   WC = b • PPB

where:

• WC is the Weight of Corn
• b is the volume (e.g. 72,000 bushels)
• PPB is the approximate pounds in one bushel of market dried corn (56 lb/bu)
