The US Censusâ âraceâ question will continue to become ever-more meaningless as long as it attempts to separate and group things in ways that have little or no meaning. There is no such race as âWhiteâ or âHispanic.â Hispanic is a cultural identification; one may be Hispanic and Bback, Asian, etc.
Using todays corn closing here in my area I would only pay $.05 per pound for dry ear corn. Don't worry how many bushels are in the wagon use only weights from a scale. For years the standard has been 70 lbs ear corn = 1 bushel of shell corn. But 2 years ago I bought a variety from a neighbor that ended up 68# .
Farmers who feed livestock sometimes buy and. sell wet ear corn by the ton. Unfortunately, itâs. rare to find price information which quotes corn. prices in dollars per ton of wet ear corn. But they. usually have ready access to the current per-. bushel price for dry shelled corn. These shelled. corn pricesâusually based on corn of 56. pounds per bushel and 15.5 percent moistureâ. provide a base for estimating the price of wet ear. corn per ton. The procedure suggested here is based on the. following logic: an alternative market for wet ear. corn is to shell it, dry it and sell it as dry shelled. corn.
