About Stremmata

A stremma (στρέμμα, plural: stremmata) is the standard Greek unit of land area, equal to exactly 1,000 m² (0.1 hectare). It is the unit every Greek and Cypriot uses for fields, olive groves, vineyards, and rural plots - in everyday Greek, no one says '1,000 square meters'; they say 'ένα στρέμμα.' Greece's total agricultural land is measured in millions of stremmata. One stremma equals approximately 0.2471 acres or 10 ares. The word derives from the Greek 'στρέφω' (to turn), historically referring to the area a plough could turn in a given time.

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.
