تحويل الكيلومتر المربع إلى الدونم: قياس الأراضي والزراعة والعقارات

Exactly 1,000 dunams equal 1 square kilometer. This straightforward conversion makes calculation simple: multiply square kilometers by 1,000 to get dunams, or divide dunams by 1,000 to get square kilometers. For example, 2.5 square kilometers equals 2,500 dunams. This exact relationship has made the dunam compatible with metric systems despite its traditional Ottoman origins.

The dunam has deep historical roots in Ottoman administrative systems and remains embedded in legal frameworks, property registries, and cultural practices throughout the Middle East. Although countries adopted the metric system officially, dunams persisted in land measurement because property deeds, inheritance laws, and real estate practices were already established in dunams. Using both systems simultaneously - dunams for local transactions and square kilometers for international dealings - allows countries to maintain legal continuity while participating in global markets.
