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 Square Furlongs
A square furlong is an area unit equal to a square with sides of one furlong (220 yards or ~201.17 m), approximately 40,469 m² or exactly 10 acres. The furlong (from Old English 'furrow-long') was historically the standard ploughing distance, and 10 square furlongs equals one acre - a relationship that made traditional land surveying convenient. While square furlongs are rarely used in official modern measurements, they appear in historical land surveys, British horse racing contexts, and as a handy reference for visualising 10-acre blocks.
