= Sri Lankan units of measurement
{wiki=Sri_Lankan_units_of_measurement}
Sri Lanka primarily uses the metric system for most measurements, which is consistent with international standards. However, there are some traditional units of measurement that are still used in certain contexts, particularly in agriculture and land measurement. Some of these traditional units include: 1. **Acre** - A common unit for measuring land area. 2. **Perch** - A traditional unit of area, where 1 acre is equivalent to 160 perches.
