A peck is a measure of volume, a pound is a measure of weight. They don't coincide with one another. There is no exact way to convert the measurements. A peck is equal to 8 quarts, dry measure. Again, quart is a measure of volume, whereas a pound is a measure of weight. There is an axiom "A pint is a pound, the whole world around". Approximately, if there are 2 pints to a quart, one quart would approximately weigh 2 pounds. If there are 8 quarts to a peck, it would be approximately 16 pounds. But the axiom is only near accurate for liquids so a peck of vegetables wouldn't follow the same logic.
Pecks are measures of volume and not of weight. There are 4 pecks in a bushel. The average bushel of peppers weighs 30 pounds, so a peck of peppers weighs an average of 7.5 pounds in the United States.
