How to Convert US Bushels to US Dry Gallons

To convert us bushels to us dry gallons, multiply the dry volume by the following conversion ratio: 8 us dry gallons/us bushel.

Since one us bushel is equal to 8 us dry gallons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

us dry gallons = us bushels × 8

The dry volume in us dry gallons is equal to the dry volume in us bushels multiplied by 8.

For example, here's how to convert 5 us bushels to us dry gallons using the formula above.

us dry gallons = (5 bu (US) × 8) = 40 dry gal

How Many US Dry Gallons Are in a US Bushel?

There are 8 us dry gallons in a us bushel, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 bu (US) = 8 dry gal|1 dry gal = 0.125 bu (US)

Our us bushel to us dry gallon calculator automatically converts your dry volume measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.

US Bushels and us dry gallons are both units used to measure dry volume. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.

What Is a US Bushel?

A us bushel is a unit of dry volume equal to 35.2390702 liters (L), the base unit for dry volume. Standard US agricultural bushel (2,150.42 in³ ≈ 35.239 L). [1]

The us bushel is classified as a US customary unit of dry volume. US Bushels can be abbreviated as bu (US); for example, 1 us bushel can be written as 1 bu (US).

When working with us bushels (bu (US)) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, us bushels (bu (US)) are widely used across standard dry volume applications within US customary workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

What Is a US Dry Gallon?

A us dry gallon is a unit of dry volume equal to 4.4048838 liters (L), the base unit for dry volume. 1/8 of a US bushel (4.40488 L). [2]

The us dry gallon is classified as a US customary unit of dry volume. US Dry Gallons can be abbreviated as dry gal; for example, 1 us dry gallon can be written as 1 dry gal.
