Vara Conuquera


The vara conuquera is a traditional Spanish unit of length used historically in some parts of Spain and Spanish America, especially in land measurement. It is a regional variation of the vara, which generally measures around 33 inches (about 0.84 meters), but the vara conuquera specifically is associated with the unit used for measuring conucosβ€”small agricultural plots or gardens.


The length of the vara conuquera could vary locally but was typically similar to or a fraction of the standard vara. It was used primarily in rural land surveying and agriculture to define plots and land boundaries.


Summary:



  • Vara conuquera: a regional variant of the vara



  • Approximately 0.83 to 0.84 meters (varied by region)



  • Used historically for measuring small agricultural plots (conucos)



  • Common in Spanish and Latin American land measurement contexts



Today, the vara conuquera is mostly of historical interest, reflecting old land measurement traditions.
