Iowa's Corn Production. How much corn does Iowa produce? In 2016, Iowa corn farmers grew 2.7 billion bushels of corn on 13.5 million acres of land. At 56 pounds per bushel, thatâs over 150 billion pounds of field corn. Yeah, thatâs a lot of corn. (Source: USDA March, 2016) Is all the corn grown in Iowa sweet corn? You wish!
At Iowa Corn, we think about it as the four Eâs of ethanol: economy, environment, energy security and engine performance. Iowa leads the nation in ethanol production, with 47 percent (1.3 billion bushels) of the corn grown in Iowa going to create nearly 30 percent of all American ethanol.
