Worth Knowing

This converts a land area between square meters, acres, and hectares — the units that dominate real-estate and agriculture and that constantly cause confusion, since an acre is an old imperial unit while a hectare is metric (and equal to about 2.47 acres). The acre itself has a charming origin: roughly the area a yoke of oxen could plough in a day. For irregular plots, surveyors split the land into triangles, so a single length-times-width figure only suits rectangular parcels.
