"Alqueire" is a unit of area that has been used in various countries, particularly in Brazil and Portugal, to measure land, especially in the context of agriculture. The size of an alqueire can vary depending on the region. In Brazil, one alqueire is generally considered to be equivalent to approximately 24,200 square meters (or about 2.42 hectares). In Portugal, it traditionally referred to a smaller area, about 4,200 square meters.
