The bushel was traditionally a unit of volume equal to 8 gallons. (1 Imperial bushel = 36.37 litres, 1 U.S. bushel = 35.24 liters)

Modern commodity trading of grain uses the bushel as a unit of mass (weight):

1 bushel of grain =

Barley: 48 lb ≈ 21.77 kg
Maize (Corn): 56 lb ≈ 25.40 kg
Malted Barley: 34 lb ≈ 15.42 kg
Oats: USA: 32 lb ≈ 14.52 kg, Canada: 34 lb ≈ 15.42 kg
Soybeans: 60 lb ≈ 27.22 kg
Wheat: 60 lb ≈ 27.22 kg
