FOR BUSHEL WEIGHTS
What does a bushel weigh? This
is a question which often arises for
which there is no definite answer.
No standards have ever been fixed
by national legislation, and the
, Georgia law covering weights and
standards of grains and commodities
is greatly in need of revision. The
statute by which measures are de
termined was enacted many years
ago, and consequently governs in the
cases of only a very few crops.
The old Winchester bushel of
2150.42 cubic inches was the original
measurement for the various kinds
of grain and farm commodities of
similar size as well as dried beans,
peas and other products. Thequan
tity represented by the heaped
bushel, however has never been fixed
by Congress. The only laws in this
regard were passed by states, and
these vary and give rise to a great
deal of confusion. For instance, the
weight of a bushel of sweet potatoes
varies from 46 pounds in one state,
to 65 pounds in another.
The weights for grains and farm
commodities in the various states
have been investigated by M. C. Gay,
Marketing Specialist of the State
College of Agriculture, and the fol
| lowing standards for a bushel for
the most common are given:
Cane seed, 50 pounds; cow peas,
60 pounds; beans (dry), 60 pounds;
beans (greens), 24 pounds; beans
(Lima) 56 pounds; soy beans 58 and
60 pounds; clover seed, 60 pounds;
corn, (in the ear), 68 to 72 pounds;
corn, (shelled), 56 pounds; corn
(unhusked) 72 to 75 pounds; cotton
seed, 28 to 33, mainly 30 pounds;
oats, 32 pounds; onions, 52 to 57
pounds; peaches, 48 pounds; peanuts
20 25 mainly 22 pounds; irish pota
z toes, 60 pounds; sweet potatoes 46
v to 65, mainly 50 and 55 pounds in
the south.
