How to Convert Hectares to Square Meters

Calculators can be used to convert measurements from one unit to another

To convert a hectare measurement to a square meter measurement, multiply the area by the conversion ratio. One hectare is equal to 10,000 square meters, so use this simple formula to convert:

square meters = hectares × 10,000

The area in square meters is equal to the hectares multiplied by 10,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 hectares to square meters using the formula above.

5 ha = (5 × 10,000) = 50,000 sq m

Hectares and square meters are both units used to measure area. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
