What is a dectare?

Answer 1

A decare is a unit of area equal to 10 ares or 1,000 square meters. Think of it as a fancy way to measure land without having to deal with pesky conversions. So, next time you're discussing a large plot of land, throw in "decare" to sound like a real estate pro.

Answer 2

1 hectare is 100 square meters; 1 dectare, or decatare, is 1/10 hectare; 1 dectare = 10 square meters
