Same here....10 to a bunch without ears, wire ties $5.00 a bunch. I grow field corn just for stalks I remove the ears early and try to cut stalks still with a lot of green leaf. Let dry in shed so they look perfect for sale... Bob.

We sell ours for 5.00 each.  We do a wire tie.  I can churn out about 30 in an hour.  With the drought we have plenty of stalks without corn.  :D

Life gives you lemons make some lemonade.  That about sums up farming this year.

I'm growing popcorn for the first time.  After harvesting I was thinking about bunching the stalks and selling them for decoration at the farmers' market.  I have no idea what to price them at, any suggestions would be very helpful.

Thanks,
