In short One mu is 0.0666667 hectare, so to convert mu to hectare you multiply by 0.0666667, and to go back you multiply hectare by 15. 2 mu is 0.133333 hectare, 5 is 0.333333 and 10 is 0.666667. A mu is exactly one fifteenth of a hectare — 666.67 m2 — so 15 mu is a hectare and 6 mu is a little under an acre. The tidy relationship is with the hectare rather than the acre, which is why Chinese agricultural statistics convert to hectares cleanly and to acres awkwardly. The mu is used in mainland China and Taiwan, where farm and rural land is universally measured in mu.

How to use the Mu to Hectare

  1. Type the value you want to convert.
