I agree with 220.... I believe that 7.5 bu/ton number is out-of-date. I think that was true maybe 40-50 years ago. Today's hybrids are putting more grain on the same size stalk. I think the right number is closer to 9-10 bu/ton.
If you take your 920 tons/ 65 acres = 14.15 ton/acre x 10 bu/ton = 142 bu/acre.
Do you think it is reasonable that you have roughly142 bu/acre?
