Assuming that the corn is shelled and that the drum is filled to level full and is precisely 30 gallon capacity and that the corn meets minimum test weight standards, then it would hold 3.75 bushels.
Ear corn is somewhat variable by its very nature, so the answer to this question can only be estimated. On average, shelled corn should weigh around 56 pounds US to the bushel. Ear corn is approximately one bushel = 0.8 bushel of shelled corn. Therefore, there should be around 45 bushels to the ton.The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that a bushel of ear corn weighs 70 lbs/ bushel. 2000/70#=28.57 bushels of ear corn to the ton.Although the two answers seem to be contradictory, they're not. The first answer assumes that one places ear corn into a one bushel container ("one bushel" being a volumetric measurement) and then shells it out, therefore making less than one bushel of shelled out corn. The USDA assumes that the user wants one bushel of shelled out grain after shelling, and so they add in the weight of the cobs to the shelled grain. It just depends on how you go about it.
