About Mu

The mu (亩, also written mǔ) is China's traditional unit of agricultural land area, equal to 1/15 hectare or approximately 666.67 m². It has been the standard land measurement in China for over two thousand years. China's total farmland is reported in hundreds of millions of mu, and rural property records across China use mu as the primary unit. One hectare equals exactly 15 mu. One mu equals approximately 0.165 acres or about 797 square yards.

About Acres

An acre is a traditional unit of land area used primarily in the United States, United Kingdom, and countries with British heritage. One acre equals 43,560 ft² or about 4,047 m². Historically based on the area a yoke of oxen could plow in one day, it remains the standard for measuring agricultural land, residential plots, and rural properties. A football field (without end zones) is roughly 1.32 acres, and most suburban house lots range from 0.25 to 1 acre.
