how many pounds is a bushel of tomatoes
A bushel of tomatoes weighs 53 pounds, so 1/2 bushel would be 26.5 pounds of tomatoes. One pound of tomatoes will yield about 1 cup of pulp after peeling and seeding. However, if you just read my info about the pizza sauce above, you won't be surprised to learn that I don't measure my tomatoes for soup, either.
