About this conversion
Gallons per square foot and Pounds per square kilometer are units used in the Universal Converter agriculture category. Gallon per Square foot (gal/ft2): Liquid application rate. Pound per Square Kilometer (lb/km2): Mass application rate.
Gallons per square foot belongs to the liquid application rate family, while Pounds per square kilometer belongs to the mass application rate family. The agriculture converter is dimension-aware, so a direct conversion between units from different families is not agronomically meaningful without extra context (such as a crop's bulk density or field application details); the scale factor above is provided purely for numeric reference.
