The size of harvest bins can vary from small trays to half tons bins. In most of Europe, yield is measured in hectoliters per hectare, i.e., by the volume of wine.In most of the New World, yield is measured in tonnes per hectare (or short tons per acre in the USA) – i.e. by mass of grapes produced per unit area.
A trade gallon is a unit of volume for standard plant containers in the horticultural industries. It equals 3 US liquid quarts or 0.75 US gallons (2.8 L; 0.62 imp gal), [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] although some sources state that a trade gallon equals 2.7 litres (0.71 US gal).
When stocking, a tree's basal area is measured. The basal area is a cross-sectional area of the stump taken about 4.5 feet (1.4 m) above the ground. [7] The equation for calculating the basal area of trees in a stand is Basal Area = 0.005454 DBH 2, where DBH is the diameter of the tree at the aforementioned measuring height. [7]
In biodiesel it says oil palm produces 5940 litres per hectare (635 USgal/acre) of palm oil each year. To make 180 billion US gallons (680,000,000 m 3) of vegetable oil each year would require 1,150,000 square kilometres (440,000 sq mi) or a square of land 1,070 kilometres (660 mi) on a side. "The gradual move from oil has begun.
In this giant tree the branch volume was only 16.7% that of the trunk volume. In many trees with smaller or fewer large branches the branch volume may average as low as 5–10% of the trunk volume. [citation needed] Detailed three dimensional mapping of the trunk and major branches of trees can be done for significant specimens.
Seed yields under cultivation can range from 1,500 to 2,000 kilograms per hectare, corresponding to extractable oil yields of 540 to 680 litres per hectare (58 to 73 gallons per acre). [36] In 2009 Time magazine cited the potential for as much as 1,600 gallons of diesel fuel per acre per year. [37]
On average, a global hectare can be produced in the area of a standard hectare. A hectare (/ ˈ h ɛ k t ɛər /; symbol ha) is a unit of area equal to 10,000 square metres (107,639 sq ft) (a square 100 metres on each side or 328 feet on each side), 2.471 acres, 0.01 square kilometers, 0.00386102 square miles, or one square hectometre (100 metres squared).
