A unit of dry measure equal to eight quarts or one quarter of a bushel (4)

I believe the answer is:

peck

(Other definitions for peck that I've seen before include "One quarter of a bushel" , "Have listless go at" , "Large number" , "Kiss; old dry measure" , "Bite lightly; a dry measure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
