Well, yes, there is.  More than one in fact, but all have various downsides.

For instance, you could package the corn.  Fewer people would rip
open a package than will pull shucks...and a few employees hanging
around will limit this even more.

You could put the corn in an automat-like machine, so you can't get
hold of it until after you pay.  For those dissatisfied with what
they got, a returns desk would provide an out.

Raise the price to cover the loses, and advertise that this is the
case...let peer pressure happen.
