Convert deciliter to U.S. bushel

Recipes give ingredients either by volume (millilitres, cups, spoons) or by weight (grams, ounces), and the two cannot be converted directly: the weight of a given volume depends on the ingredient. A cup of water weighs about 240 g, a cup of flour only about 125 g and a cup of sugar about 200 g. The link between the two is the density of the ingredient.

The bushel is a grain measure, 35.24 l in the US and 36.37 l in the imperial system, and US commodity markets still trade wheat, corn and soybeans by the bushel, taken as 60 lb of wheat or 56 lb of corn. The cord is firewood: a stack 4 ft high, 4 ft deep and 8 ft long, 128 cubic feet or 3.62 m³. The acre-foot, the water needed to cover an acre a foot deep (1,233 m³), is the unit of reservoirs and water rights in the western US.
