How many 5 gallon buckets of field peas in shell equal a bushel?

A bushel of field peas in the shell typically weighs about 28 pounds. Since a standard 5-gallon bucket can hold approximately 25-30 pounds of field peas when full, it would take about 1 to 1.2 buckets to equal a bushel, depending on the exact weight and density of the peas in the bucket.
