Use this formula: 1 bushel = 56 pounds
40.2 bushel of corn to a ton of wood pellets
The typical weight of feed corn (#2 yellow dent corn) is 56 pounds per bushel. By volume, there is about 8 gallons in a bushel. Thus there is 7 pounds in a gallon of corn.
It takes a lot more energy, water, labour to produce a pound of meat than a pound of corn. It takes pounds of corn and water to feed just one pig.
six --OR-- If you are talking about a strictly volumetric conversion, there are 32 quarts in a bushel. This would be the case if you had one bushel of dried, shelled field corn, for example.
A bit of both. It used to be a volume measurment, but today its used as a weight measurment of 56 lb. The above answer is absolutely wrong. I own thousands of acres of fruit in the Indian River Fruit area and the domain name indianriverfruit.com so i should know. a 1/4 bushel of fruit as are all peck and bushel measurements is a volume thing. a 1/4 bushel of fruit will weigh 10 to 11 pounds a 1/2 bushel 20- 22 pounds a 3/4 bushel is 30 to 33 pounds and a bushel is approx 40 to 44 pounds. take a bushel basket of oranges and weigh them and you will find I am right! Hope this helps! Depends on what you are measuring or weighing---ie bushel of shelled corn is 56 lbs. bushel of southern peas is 25 lbs etc.---my 2cents.

There's the last bushel of corn! I wonder what the price of a bushel of beets would be today.

A bushel and a pound are two different measurements! While both are generally dry units of measurements the bushel is used mostly in agriculture. A bushel of wheat and a bushel of corn have two different weights as do apples and oranges, where as a pound is a pound. The only way you're going to figure out the weight of a bushel of crabs is to cram as many crabs into a bushel basket as you can (good luck with that) and weigh it. Then again it depends on the type of crabs as well.
It is estimated that the true break even price on corn is about $4.58 per bushel. That is based on a yield of about 200 bushels per acre.
On average, multiply the ear corn bushels times 0.8 to get shelled corn bushels. This is not an absolute, just a rule of thumb for estimating. The only way to get a truly accurate measure is to go ahead and shell the corn.
