I grew up on a farm myself and all I can say is carrying a peck of potatoes was a whole lot easier than carrying a bushel of them as a kid. I see the 4 to a bushel was answered years ago, lol. As far as picking straw berries go though, I couldn't even fill a pint container with them cause they all ended up in my mouth.
Mama, how come I never got any pecks, just the pinches?

Ah, being blonde must be the reason. Throwing punches wasn't an option for me though. I woulda had more than just red cheeks. I would have just preferred the pecks.
