What is a Hectare? History, origin and usage

The hectare belongs to the metric system created during the French Revolution; the law of 18 Germinal, Year III (1795) defined the are as 100 square metres for measuring land. The hectare is 100 ares, its name combining the Greek hecto- (hundred) with the are.

It is the legal unit for land area across the European Union, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and much of the world, used in agriculture, forestry, planning and land management. In India it appears in official agricultural statistics and land records alongside the acre.

One hectare is 10,000 square metres, about 2.47 acres, and 100 hectares make one square kilometre. It is close in size to an international rugby pitch, which makes it a handy mental yardstick.

What is a Killa? History, origin and usage

Killa is the colloquial Punjab and Haryana name for an acre, and is synonymous with the ghumaon, an older term for land that a pair of oxen could plough. Its prominence grew through the killabandi system of British canal-colony settlement, in which large blocks were squared off and divided into one-acre killas.

Farmers and revenue records in Punjab, Haryana and parts of Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh routinely measure agricultural holdings in killa. One killa is treated as one acre for all practical purposes.

One killa equals one acre, which is 8 kanal or 160 marla, and 25 killa make one murabba. The grid of square killas you see in Punjab's farmland is a direct legacy of the killabandi land consolidation.

How to use this Hectare to Killa converter

Type a number into the Hectare field and the equivalent in Killa appears instantly — there is no “convert” button to press and nothing is sent to a server, so it works offline once the page has loaded and is safe for any data. You can also type into the Killa field to convert the other way (killa to hectare). Use the swap control to flip the two units, and copy the result with a single click. Because the calculation runs in your browser with full floating-point precision, the converter is more exact than the rounded figures shown in the reference chart above — use the chart for quick look-ups and the tool for precise work.

Accuracy and method

Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 ha = 2.471054 killa), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for hectare-to-killa conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
