The coomb is a historical unit of measurement for dry volume, primarily used in agriculture, particularly in the UK. It is typically employed to quantify agricultural produce, such as grain, potatoes, or other dry substances. The exact volume of a coomb can vary regionally, but it is commonly defined as equivalent to 4 bushels. In terms of modern measurements, one bushel is approximately 35.24 liters, which means a coomb would be around 140.
