Take the duck leaving the dog with the corn. Come back, get the dog and take him to island. Pick up duck, bring it back so dog is alone. Leave duck alone and take corn. Come back and get duck.

Take the duck over, come back.

Take the dog over, leave it but bring the duck back.

Take the corn over, come back.

Take the duck over.

Ah others have already replied since I was typing. This is well known puzzle, I normally see it with a fox and chicken, or something.

First take the duck across. Then go back, fetch the dog, but when you drop off the dog pick up the duck and return. Drop off the duck and fetch the corn, go back, drop off the corn, go back and fetch the duck.

On the final journey consider why the duck could not simply fly or swim across. Or: why the duck (having eaten the corn) wasn't consumed by the dog before you made your first journey. Or why Ireland needs evacuating in the first place.

Don't think about it too much though.
