A bushel of wheat weighs approximately 60 pounds (about 27.22 kilograms). This is the standard weight used for trading and measuring wheat in agricultural contexts.

Details:

• The weight of one bushel of wheat is standardized as 60 pounds.
• This weight corresponds to the volume measurement of one bushel, which is traditionally 8 gallons or 2150.42 cubic inches.
• The 60-pound measure is recognized by USDA and is a key factor in determining milling yield and pricing for wheat.

This standardized weight allows for consistent trade and measurement across the wheat market.
