About this conversion
Square mile and Short tons per hectare are units used in the Universal Converter agriculture category. Square mile (mi2): A square mile is 640 acres. Short ton per Hectare (ton/ha): Mass application rate.
Square mile belongs to the area family, while Short tons per hectare 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.
