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 square yard
The square yard, another imperial unit, is used for measuring relatively smaller areas. While not as common today, it still appears in certain real estate listings and textile measurements. In sports, for instance, some playing fields may be described in square yards.
