Unit History
About acre
The acre is a traditional unit of area in the imperial system, still widely used in the United States and the United Kingdom for land transactions. Historically, an acre was roughly the amount of land one person could plow in a single day with a team of oxen. Today, one acre equals about 4,047 square meters.
About hectare
A hectare is a non-SI unit accepted for use with the SI, representing 10,000 square meters (an area of 100 meters by 100 meters). It is commonly employed in agriculture, forestry, and land management. Widely used throughout Europe and many other metric-adopting countries, the hectare provides a convenient way to measure sizable plots of land.
