Answer

$9397\; lb/acre$. $168\;bu/acre$.

Work Step by Step

The given value is $=10,550\;kg/ha$ Covert the given value to $lb/acre$ First covert kilogram to pounds. Second convert $ha$ to $acre$. $=10,550 \frac{kg}{ha}\times \frac{2.20lb}{1\;kg}\times \frac{1\;ha}{2.47\;acres}$ Simplify. $=9397\; lb/acre$. Covert the above value to $bu/acre$. Use $1\;bu=56\;lb$ $=9397 \frac{lb}{acre}\times \frac{1\;bu}{56\;lb}$ Simplify. $=168\;bu/acre$.
