You don't even have to go back that far. At the local elevator there is a highest corn yield award from the 70s hanging on the wall. The winning yield was 120 bu/ac. Though we don't quite get to 300 bu/ac in this area (yet), but 250 bu/ac isn't unheard of.
- pnathan 12y agoSorry, my recollection was off - I thought I had misremembered because it was so high. The record for 2014 harvest is 504 bu/ac for Corn. http://farmfutures.com/story-ncga-announces-2014-corn-yield-contest-winners-0-121770 http://farmfutures.com/story-ncga-announces-2014-corn-yield-...
