Hectare, a commonly used unit of the metric system that is used to measure land and plots all across the world, goes by the symbol ha. Invented in the year 1795, the term hectare is a conjunction of the Latin words area and hect.
A hectare is equal to 10,000 square meters and 2.471 acres in the British Imperial System. A 100 ha is equal to one square kilometre. Consequently, a farm with 200 ha of fields has 2 square kilometers of fields. To give the understanding of the area a visual perspective, it would be better to equate a hectare with a football field. It is about the size of a European football field.

A metric unit of square measure, the term hectare is derived by adding the standard metric prefixes to the original base unit of area, the are. An are is equal to 100 square metres while a hectares is equal to 100 ares. Even though the are is the primary metric unit of land measurement, the hectare has become more common.
