I think 12 lbs would be a good guess. 6 quarts of water is 12 pounds. Tomatoes are mostly water- there will be space between the tomatoes, but they can be heaped up over the brim of the basket. A produce manager or truck farmer may have actually weighed such baskets and would know for sure; if so, I hope they will supply the definitive answer.
As many as your basket can hold. Baskets come in different sizes.
There can be no equivalence. A pound is a measure of mass. A quart is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. If you are not convinced, consider a quart of air. How many pounds? Next consider a quart of treacle. How many pounds?
Each gallon of liquid water weighs 8.33 pounds. When water freezes it expands slightly which means it would weigh slightly less, but this difference is negligible. This would mean, if there are 4 quarts in a gallon, that a quart of ice weighs about 2.1 pounds around...maybe just slightly less
1 US quart is 946.353mL
How many cups are there in a pint

One bushel of fresh tomatoes weighs 53 pounds and yields about 18 quarts of canned tomatoes. Therefore, about 3 pounds of fresh tomatoes makes 1 qt of canned tomatoes.
In home canning this can depend.You can get 12 quarts of peaches out 1 bushel. A bushel of tomatoes weighs 53 pounds and will fill about 22 quart bottles whether you bottle them as tomatoes, or juice them.
it depends how heavy the bowl is and how big the tomato is if the tomato is 500g and the bowl is 600g it would be 1.1k your answer just came by a kid
I bought 30lbs of beets to pickle and had the same issue: my Mum's recipe calls for a 6 quart basket. Turns out 1 10lb bag is equal to about 5 quarts.
12 tomatoes or 3 oz

With water, one pint equals one pound; therefore, a quart of water is two pounds. However, different foods weigh differently. Since "quart" is a unit of volume and "pound" is a unit of weight, there is no reliable conversion between the two without knowing the weight of the food being measured.

A quart of water weighs approximately 2.086 pounds.
