About this conversion
Pounds per square mile and Liters per square kilometer are units used in the Universal Converter agriculture category. Pound per Square mile (lb/mi2): Mass application rate. Liter per Square Kilometer (L/km2): Liquid application rate.
Pounds per square mile belongs to the mass application rate family, while Liters per square kilometer belongs to the liquid 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.
