About Bushels
A US bushel (bu) is a dry volume unit equal to 4 pecks or 8 dry gallons - approximately 35.239 liters. It is the primary unit for measuring and trading dry agricultural commodities in the United States: wheat, corn, soybeans, oats, and barley are all priced and traded globally in bushels on commodity exchanges like the Chicago Board of Trade. An acre of wheat typically yields 40-60 bushels; a standard grain truck holds 800-1000 bushels. The US bushel (35.24 L) differs slightly from the UK bushel (36.37 L). Commodity market prices per bushel directly affect global food prices.
