Section To Bigha (Sec To Bigha) Converter

The Section To Bigha (Sec To Bigha) Converter is a helpful tool designed to convert land measurements from sections to bighas, which are commonly used units in certain regions. Understanding these units is essential for accurate land measurement and management.

A “Section” is a land measurement unit used primarily in the United States, where one section equals 640 acres. It is a square area measuring one mile on each side. On the other hand, a “Bigha” is a traditional unit of land measurement used in parts of India, Nepal, and Bangladesh. The size of a bigha varies by region, but it generally ranges from about 1,500 to 6,771 square meters.

To convert from sections to bighas, you need to know the specific regional value of a bigha. The general formula involves converting the section measurement into acres first, then converting acres into square meters, and finally converting square meters into bighas based on regional standards. For example, if 1 bigha equals 2,500 square meters, the conversion formula would be:

Number of Bighas = (Number of Sections × 640 acres) × (Conversion factor from acres to square meters) ÷ (Size of one Bigha in square meters)

This tool simplifies the process by allowing you to input the number of sections, and it automatically calculates the equivalent area in bighas, making land measurement conversions quick and easy for beginners and professionals alike.
