How much grain is that?
Bushel weights are the trade standards at standard moisture. Wet grain weighs more per bushel and is discounted accordingly.
The math
How to convert t to bu
A bushel is a volume, so each crop has its own weight: wheat 27.22 kg, corn 25.40 kg, oats 14.52 kg. Multiply bushels by that figure.
Example: 1,000 t = 36,743.8 bu.
The table below uses Wheat (60 lb/bu). Change the crop and the bushel weight changes with it.
