Estimate the number of bushels in a round grain bin. Calculation includes the volume of the bin in cubic feet and litres. The United States uses the Winchester bushel (1.244456 ft²), and in Canada, they use the Avery bushel ( 1.284349 ft²).

Bushels in a Cylinder Shaped Bin
Volume Formula
V = Π (D/2)²H;
where V is the volume of the bin
Π = 3.14159
D = the diameter of the bin
H = the height of the bin
Conversions
one bushel (bu) US = 1.24445601851852 cubic feet (ft³)
one bushel (bu) Imperial = 1.28434922588714 cubic feet (ft³)
one cubic foot (ft³) = 28.316846592 litres (L)
