Depends on what type of soil it is and whats in it
It all depends on the weight of the soil and what type of soil it is to find how much two feet of soil weighs.
a cubic meter of soil will weight 550-900 kg depending on its composition
On one site I found the weight of one cubic yard of topsoil listed as 1,35 US tons
"A yard of soil" is a shorthand notation for a cubic yard of soil. They are equivalent.
one cubic foot of earth, depending on the type, weighs approx. 100 lbs.
soil weighs 1600 kg/ cubic meter
Density of loose soil is about 1200 kg/m3 1 cubic meter of soil may weigh more than this if compacted or moist.

It varies, depending upon how moist the soil is and how packed it is, but on average a cubic yard of topsoil weighs 2200 pounds, so a gallon will weigh about 10.9 pounds.
A cubic yard of topsoil, if compacted to get the air pockets out will weigh more than 1 tone. If the topsoil is loose, a cubic yard of it could weigh about 1 ton. A lot depends on the topsoil, and whether it has more stone dust or less in it. The more moist the topsoil is, the more likely it will weigh more than a ton.

It depends on the moisture content of the manure and soil. Also it depends on the makeup of the soil. A cubic foot of smaller soil particles will weigh more than a very sandy soil which has larger particles.

It is difficult to answer this without knowing what the cubic yard contains. A ballpark estimation would be one of the most common consumer purchases of something delivered by the cubic yard, top soil. A relatively dry, screened, cubic yard of top soil will weigh approximately 2400 lbs. For our friends in the rest of the world, 2400 lb = 1088.621 kg (or 1.08862 mt).
That is approximately 1 cubic ft.
