You need to know exactly how many seeds you are planting in each row x the # of rows to purchase by count. unless you have a precision planter ( which ideally spaces the seed at 9" apart) that you invested thousands of dollars in that is not a very accurate way to estimate the amount of seed you need. earthway planters don't plant seeds that accurately, for the home gardener it isn't as important. thinning isn't an acres or more worth of corn to go through.

I get my Mirai seed through Harris seeds. There is also Twin Farms, you could contact them for a bulk seed sale price.
I'm just planting by hand, LOL, so no thinning.
