What is a Hectare?

A Hectare is a unit for measuring large areas of land. It was first introduced in France in 1795 and comes from the Latin word for "area". Later on, its use spread to other countries across Europe, Asia, and the Americas as the metric system gained popularity.

In India, hectare is commonly used for official land records and agricultural statistics, alongside traditional units like bigha and biswa. It is mostly expressed as an area of 10,000 square metres. We can visualise it as roughly the size of an international football pitch. One hectare is also equivalent to 2.471 acres, 107,639 square feet or 11,960 square yards.

What is Square Feet?

A square foot (sq ft) is a unit for measuring areas of land and buildings. It was commonly used in Britain and its colonies and remains popular in the UK for property measurements, despite the official switch to metric units. In India, most properties are advertised in square feet.

A square foot represents the area of a square that measures one foot on each side, which is roughly the size of a large dinner plate. One square foot equals 144 square inches. Estate agents in the UK typically list properties in both square feet and square metres to help buyers understand the space available.
