1300 pounds per acre. The answer was in this answered question I found via Google. How many square feet of a wheat farmers land does it take to produce enough flour to make a one pound loaf of bread? Typical yields of wheat in the US are about 26 bushels per acre. There are about 50 pounds of wheat per bushel or 1300 pounds per acre. A pound of wheat yields about .85 pound of flour or 1105 per acre. It takes about .8 pounds of flour per pound of bread (the rest is water)giving about 1381 loaves per acre. There are 43560 square feet per acre, so it takes about 31 square feet per loaf of bread. http://en.allexperts.com/q/Food-Engineering-Manufacturing-2446/Research.htm

If you are trying to make flour from wheat there are some important calculations you should know. 1 cup of wheat berries will give you one and one third cup wheat. There are 3 cups in a pound that means that 6000 cups of wheat berries will give you approximately 7980 cups of flour.
