barnful

What barn holds

A barnful is the amount that fills a barn, used for loose quantities of hay, grain, livestock, or stored equipment: We harvested a barnful of wheat this season.

Like similar -ful formations, it often conveys abundance rather than precise measurement: a barnful of antique tractors.
