1 Hectare (हेक्टेयर) = 2.47 Acre (एकड़)
1 Bigha = 0.253 Hectare
1 Kanaal = 180 Sarshahi
1 Marla = 9 Sarshahi
1 Sarsahi = 3.36 Sq. Yard
1 Yard = 2.986 feet
1 Jarib = 100 Kadiyan (1 kadi = 20 cm) = 66 Feet
10 Jarib = 1 farlang
80 Jarib = 1 mile
1 Kram = 5 Feet 6 Inch
3 Kram Rasta = 16 feet 6 Inch
1 एकड़ की लंबाई ओर चौड़ाई कितनी होती है? : 220 ft x 198 ft | 40 Karams x 36 Karams
The Fard serves as a comprehensive record, documenting the ownership and respective shares of land in the form of fractions (such as 1/6 or 7/320). Additionally, the Fard maintains information about the total land area, including the specific portion accounted for by each owner.
Suppose in a fard X has part 7/320 (7th part out of a total of 320 parts)
Total Land = 8 Kanal = 4840 Gaj / Sq. Yard
X’s part = 4840 x 7/320 = 33880/320 = 105.875 Gaj / Sq. Yard
