Show Utah corn crop predicted good Utah should rank at the top in producing high yields of corn for grain or silage. We have efficient farmers, good soil, adequate irrigation water, and an excellent climate. Sadly, however, average yields in Utah are far below other states which have not been blessed with such favorable growing conditions. During the last five years, Utah has produced an average of sixty-two bushels of grain per cornacre, and 15.25 tons of silage per acre all under un-der irrigation California, on the other hand, produced an average aver-age of 92 bushels of grain per cornacre and 19 tons of silage per acre. Indiana, a non-irrigated state, had a 92 bushel average av-erage last year, and ranked first in the nation.
