1 bushel [US, dry] = 1.2444560268 cubic feet. A 60' diameter bin will have 2,827.4333 cubic feet per vertical linear foot. Therefore, one vertical foot of corn in the bin will be 3,518.62 bushels (approximate). This is based only on the straight bushel volume; it does not allow for corn which may be light (or heavy) on test weight, or with a moisture content outside the norm.
Answer ON PAPER: 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot. 7.9 ft3 in a 55-gallon drum One bushel is 1.24 approx cubic feet. 6.37 bushels per 55-gallon drum. 56 pounds is a bushel 356 lbs in a drum of corn. 5.6 drums in a ton of corn. 35.7 bushels of corn in a ton. IN REALITY: Grain elevators measure bushels by weight. Actual weight may vary -- Between 350 and 400 pounds can fit in a 55 gallon drum So 350/56 = 6.25 bushels by weight. or 400/56 = 7.14 bushels by weight
