See the following table for the approximate number of crabs per bushel: Generally speaking, a bushel of Number Ones will hold 60 - 70 crabs depending on how big the crabs are at that time of year. If there are 60 - 70 crabs, they will feed about 10 - 12 people depending upon what else is on the menu.
The price / bushel is $800. Does this mean that one bushel is worth $800?? one bushel is around 35 litres so this is extremly expsnsive. I can buy wheat flour for a fraction of that cost. Or is the 800 price for 5000 bushels? In which case one bushel would be worth $0.15, which I consider extremly cheap.
