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.

Square kilometers are standard in many international datasets involving geography and environmental statistics.
