About the hectare and the square foot
The hectare
The hectare is the metric land unit — exactly 10,000 m², a square 100 meters on each side. It's the standard for farmland, forestry, and land registration in nearly every country outside the US. One hectare is about 2.47 acres. A rugby or soccer pitch is roughly 0.7–1 hectare.
The square foot
The square foot is the standard area unit for US and Canadian real estate, and remains common in UK property listings alongside square meters. One square foot is exactly 0.09290304 m² (derived from 1 ft = 0.3048 m squared). A typical US single-family home is 1,500–2,500 sq ft; a two-car garage is about 400–600 sq ft.
