Even the actual conversion of the same oil or grain is different due to different varieties or origins. 1 British bushel (1.0321 US bushel) equals 36.3677 liters.

according to American Soybean Association According to the statistical unit conversion table, the weight of 1BU soybean is 60lb or 27.2154kg. 32 lb for cottonseed of the same volume; Corn 56lb; Peanut kernel（ Virginia Production) 17lb; Peanut kernel (produced in Spain) 25lb; Sunflower 28 lb. This is just a conventional measurement concept in industry statistics. However, in trade settlement, the actual weight shall prevail.

The conversion between bushels and kilograms is different in different countries and different agricultural products. In terms of soybeans and wheat, Britain, the United States, Canada and Australia are all the same. A bushel is equal to 27.216 kilograms. In terms of corn, although the four countries are the same, the proportion is different, and one bushel is only 25.401 kg. But in barley, not only the proportion is different, but also the weight conversion is different. In terms of rye, Britain, America and Canada are the same, while Australia is different.

It can be seen that this is a rather complicated problem. In foreign trade, we must be careful.
