A bushel of milo weighs around 56 pounds.
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.
The abbreviation for bushel is "bu."
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 bushel of carrots typically contains around 50-60 carrots.
