Unit Definition (labor)
The labor is a traditional unit of area in Latin American countries. The labor is equal to the area of a square 1000 varas on a side, or 0.04 legua. Using the Texas standard for the vara (33 1/3 inches), this is equivalent to 177.136 acres or 71.685 hectares. The word labor means work in Spanish, as it does in English. As a unit it represents the area that could be cultivated by a single farmer, somewhat like the old English hide.

Unit Definition (cover)
The Cover is a traditional Welsh unit of area, standardized in the British system to be exactly 2/3 acre (about 0.2698 hectare). The word is an Anglicized version of the Welsh name cyfair for the unit.
