| Convert from labor to pyong |
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 (pyong) The pyong is a traditional Korean unit of area equal to about 3.306 square meters or 3.954 square yards. The pyong is widely used in Korea to measure areas both inside and outside buildings. The Taiwanese ping corresponds closely to the pyong.
