The heaviest butternut squash weighed 131.4 pounds (59.6 kilograms) when measured at the State Fair of Virginia in Doswell, Virginia, USA, on 23 September 2023. The squash was grown by Jason Loris (USA) from Amissville, Virginia.


The butternut squash measured 59 in (149.9 cm; 4 ft 10.9 in) long and had a side-to-side width of 34.5 in (87.6 cm; 2 ft 10.5 in).

Even more incredibly, earlier in September Loris had already broken the previous record with another butternut squash grown on the same plant. He presented a specimen that weighed 123.5 lb (56 kg) at the Wild and Wonderful Weigh-Off in Craigsville, Virginia, on 16 September. The mark to beat, from 2021, had been 104.5 lb (47.4 kg).
