Corn in Iowa will do from 100 up to 150 bu per acre, depending on the
year. Here where I live dry land corn is good for 50 to 100 bu per
acre, irrigated from 170 to 250 bu per acre. Every area has it's own
capacity.
We at The Revenoor Co. have custom built stainless steel stills in the past
and the beverage people just were not happy with the end result. So we bought
them back and made copper ones instead.

They're all average figures, much on the conservative side. I don't
know average per bushel yields. You should be able to get much higher
yields than these, especially on a small area with a bit of care.
