short ton per acre

Mass per areaexact by definition

The short ton per acre is 2000 pounds spread over an acre, exactly 907.18474 ÷ 4046.8564224 kg/m², about 0.2242. It is how manure, lime, silage and other bulk materials are rated in North America.

Watch out: This is the SHORT ton of 2000 lb, not the metric tonne of 1000 kg nor the long ton of 2240 lb. One short ton per acre is 2.242 t/ha — the numbers are more than a factor of two apart, and all three are called "tons" in speech.
