One half cup of kernels has 0.146 kg CO2e
(1/2) US cup = 0.0033569022 US bushels
Therefore, corn has a carbon footprint of 43.49 kg CO2 per bushel
A bushel of corn will yield an average of 31.5 pounds of starch, which in turn will yield about 33.3 pounds of syrup
Therefore, corn syrup has a carbon footprint of 2.87 kg CO2e per kg
