Agricultural Land Measuring Units in
Pakistan
Posted by Shakil Shaukat On Tuesday, September 11, 2012
The following are most common agricultural land measuring units being used in Pakistan.
Karam
1 karam = 2 ft. steps = 5.5 ft. = 1.67 m
1 sq. Karam = 5.5 x 5.5 ft. = (5.5)2 ft.2 = 30.25 ft.2
or
1 sq. Karam = 1.67 x 1.67 m = (1.67)2 m2 = 2.679 m2
Marla
1 Marla = 9 sq. Karam = 9 x (5.5)2 ft.2= 9 x 30.25 ft.2 = 272.24 ft.2
or

1 Marla = 9 sq. Karam = 9 x (1.67) m = 9 x 2.789m = 25.10 m
Kanal
1 Kanal (K) = 20 Marla = 20 x 272.24 ft.2 = 5444.8 ft.2(since, 1 Marla = 272.24 ft.2) or
1 Kanal (K) = 20 Marla = 20 x 25.10 m2 = 502 m2
(since, 1 Marla = 25.10 m2)
or
1 Kanal (K) = 20 Marla = 20 x 9 sq. Karam = 180 sq. Karam (since 1 Marla = 9 sq. Karam)
Bega
1 Bega (B) = 4 Kanal = 4 x 5444.8 ft.2 = 21779.2 ft.2 (since, 1 Kanal = 5444.8 ft.2) or
1 Bega (B) = 4 Kanal = 4 x 502 m2 = 2008 m2
(since, 1 Kanal = 502 m2)
or
1 Bega (B) = 4 Kanal = 4 x 180 sq. Karam = 720 sq. Karam
(since, 1 Kanal = 180 sq.
Karam)

(since, 1 Kanal = 5444.8 ft.2) or
= 8 Kanal = 8 x 502 m2 = 4016 m2
(since, 1 Kanal = 502 m2)
or
= 8 Kanal = 8 x 180 sq. Karam = 1440 sq. Karam (since, 1 Kanal = 180 sq. Karam)
= 2 Bega
Hectare
1 Hectare = 2.47 Acre
Murabba / Square
1 Square = 24 Acre
Lat
1 Lat = 15 Acre

A Marla is a traditional unit of land in most areas of Pakistan. The marla was standardized
under British rule to be equal to the 272.25 square feet or 30.25 square yards, but now a
days, three different plot measurements are in use in different areas/housing schemes of
Pakistan. In Cities like Lahore, Islamabad etc Marla is smaller (i.e 225 sq. ft.).
1 Marla can have three different sizes, it can be 272.25 sq ft, 250 sq ft, or 225 sq ft.
Sometimes Yard (Gaz in urdu) is used for land/plot measurement. Remember, 1 Yard = 3
feets
Here we present 3 tables converting Marla to Square Feet Conversion, Square Yards &
Square Meters for help of land/plot buyers in Pakistan.
