First you must keep in mind that all ears of corn have an even number of rows, never an odd number. All average ears have between 12 and 20 rows. Still, it's difficult to tell at a glance whether an ear has 14, 16, 18, or 20 rows.
1 An ear of corn averages 800 kernels in 16 rows. 2  A pound of corn consists of approximately 1,300 kernels. 3  100 bushels of corn produces approximately 7,280,000 kernels.  Each year, a single U.S. farmer provides food and fiber for 129 people - 97 in the U.S. and 32 overseas.
