Q: What is a bushel wheat per hectare?

Bushel wheat per Hectare (bu wheat/ha) measures agricultural yield rate. Combines the US bushel-of-wheat trade standard (60 lb/bu, per USDA GIPSA) with the metric hectare, for comparing US-reported wheat yields against yields from countries that report in metric units. It is classified as a mixed US customary/metric grain-yield unit.
