In short
One jerib is 0.2 hectare, so to convert jerib to hectare you multiply by 0.2, and to go back you multiply hectare by 5. 2 jerib is 0.4 hectare, 5 is 1 and 10 is 2. The Afghan jerib is 2000 m2 — two dunam, or about half an acre. Iran uses the name for a different area in some regions, so a figure taken from an Iranian source should not be assumed to match an Afghan one. The jerib is used in Afghanistan and parts of Iran, where the jerib is the standard unit for agricultural land.
