Hectare To Section (Ha To Sec) Converter

The Hectare To Section (Ha To Sec) Converter is a simple tool designed to help you convert land measurements from hectares to sections. It is useful for land surveyors, farmers, real estate professionals, and anyone working with land area units.

A hectare (ha) is a metric unit of area commonly used in land measurement. One hectare equals 10,000 square meters (m²). It is roughly equivalent to about 2.471 acres.

A section, in land measurement, is a unit used primarily in the United States and Canada, especially in the Public Land Survey System (PLSS). One section equals 640 acres. Since 1 hectare is approximately 2.471 acres, you can convert hectares to sections using a simple formula.

The formula to convert hectares to sections is:
Sections = (Hectares × 2.471) / 640

To use the converter, simply input the number of hectares you want to convert, and the tool will calculate the equivalent number of sections based on the above formula. This makes it easy to understand land sizes across different measurement systems.
