| Convert from oxgang to ping |
Unit Definition (oxgang) The oxgang is an old English unit of land area equal to 1/8 hide or roughly 15 acres (6 hectares). The hide was considered the area a farmer could plow with a team of 8 oxen, so an oxgang was the area he could plow with a single ox. The unit was also called the bovate, from the Latin word bos for an ox or cow. Unit Definition (ping) The ping is a traditional unit of area in Taiwan, equal to about 3.305 square meters (3.953 square yards). This is the same unit known in Korea as the pyong.
