one hamper of picked peas yields how many pound of shelled peas
It takes about 7.5 pounds of peas to make a bushel of peas. This means that it takes about 1 1/2 five gallon buckets of peas to make a whole bushel of peas.
About $12.
37.27 quarts Given that 37.27 quarts does indeed make a bushel of peas, there is another point of view that needs to be considered. If you are purchasing peas directly from a farmer, you normally buy them unshelled. A bushel of unshelled peas will not give you 37.27 quarts after you shell them, far from it. Normally you can expect only about a gallon of peas (4 quarts) after shelling a bushel of peas. If however the farmer is generous, you might actually get 5 to 6 quarts. This is what is called a 'round' bushel. That is, heaped until peas fall out of a bushel basket.

a bushel is 56 lb
According to the folks at the local Farmer's Market a bushel of shelled peas is 10lbs or should I say that's what they sell it as.
25 pounds is equal to a bushel of peas that are still hulled.
Roughly two dollars a pound in the shell. So, around 20 pounds of peas in the shell per bushel should bring around 40 dollars a bushel.
