The minimum production rate of bushels per acre of corn needed this year is 97 for two year's production to reach the goal of 49,100.

How to calculate the minimum production rate?

To calculate the minimum production rate for this year, we must subtract the production rate of the previous year, with what is expected to be obtained this year.

  • 49,100 - 20,000 = 29,100

Then we must divide the minimum that must be obtained by the total area, by the 300 acres that we have, to know how much corresponds to each acre.

  • 29,100 ÷ 300 = 97

According to the above, each acre must produce 97 bushels of corn to reach the goal of 49,100 for both years.
