How the calculation works

A hectare is 10,000 square metres, while a rai is 1,600 square metres — so converting rai to hectares means multiplying by 0.16, or dividing by 6.25. The unit shows up most often in cultivated-area reports, international agricultural statistics, and export paperwork that follows the metric standard.

Example: a 20-rai rubber plantation equals 3.2 hectares. When a form or report calls for hectares, that is the figure to enter directly, with no further rounding needed.
