Square Meters to Hectares
The square meter is the SI unit of area, used worldwide for floor plans, land plots, and material coverage. A hectare is 10,000 square meters, the standard unit for measuring farmland and forest area. 1 m² equals 0.0001 ha, so converting between them is a matter of multiplying by that fixed factor — type any value into the converter below and both sides update instantly as you type.
Both units belong to area, measured here against area's base unit (m²) — every other area unit on this site converts through that same reference point, which is why the table below can also be read as a quick cross-check against nearby values.
Formula
ha = m² × 0.0001
m² = ha × 10,000
Worked example: 5 m² × 0.0001 = 0.0005 ha.
