Unit Definition (rood) The rood is a a traditional unit of area used to measure land. A rood is the area of a narrow strip of land one furlong (40 rods, or 660 feet) long and one rod (16.5 feet) wide. Thus the rood is equal to 40 square rods (or perches), which equals 1210 square yards, or 10 890 square feet, or exactly 1/4 acre. That would be the area of a lot 22 yards wide and 55 yards deep, about the size of many suburban lots. One rood is approximately 1011.714 square meters, or 0.101 171 4 hectare. Unit Definition (dhur) The Dhur is a traditional unit of land area in South Asia, equal to 1/20 kattha or 1/400 bigha. Like the bigha, the dhur varied in size from region to another. In Nepal, where the unit is still in use, the dhur equals about 16.9 square meters or 20.2 square yards.
