how many pounds is a peck of tomatoes?

Question

Prof. Carmelo Hilpert · Accepted Answer

A peck is an Imperial and U.S. customary unit of dry volume, equivalent in each of these systems to 8 dry quarts, or 16 dry pints. Two pecks make a kenning (obsolete), and four pecks make a bushel.Apples are often sold in peck or half-peck bags or baskets in the United States, but otherwise the peck is rarely used.In Scotland, the peck was used as a dry measure until the introduction of Imperial units as a result of the Weights and Measures Act 1824. The peck was equal to about 9 litres (in the case of certain crops, such as wheat, peas, beans and meal) and about 13 litres (in the case of barley, oats and malt). A firlot was equal to 4 pecks and the peck was equal to 4 lippies or forpets. 1 Imperial peck = 9.09218 litres 1 U.S. peck = 8.80977 litres

Prof. Carmelo Hilpert · Answer

8 quarts equals one peck ... 4 pecks equals one bushel ... therefore, 1 peck is 1/4 of a bushel ... the weight would depend on how much you can get into that 1/4 bushel... the weight varies on the size of the tomatoes put into the peck container.Bigger tomatoes take up more room in the box than smaller ones ... so you can get more of the smaller ones into the container....
