Acres Per Hour Calculator

Basic Mode

Enter first two values for calculation.

Width of Mower (inches) Enter the width of your mower in inches. Mower Speed (MPH) Enter the speed of the mower in miles per hour. Acres Per Hour of Cutting This field will display the calculated acres cut per hour.

Width of Mower 1 (inches) Enter the width of the first mower in inches. Mower Speed 1 (MPH) Enter the speed of the first mower in miles per hour. Width of Mower 2 (inches) Enter the width of the second mower in inches. Mower Speed 2 (MPH) Enter the speed of the second mower in miles per hour. Efficiency Factor (%) Enter the efficiency factor (e.g., 90 for 90% efficiency). Total Acres Per Hour of Cutting This field will display the total acres cut per hour based on both mowers.

How to measure the efficiency of your mower in terms of acres covered per hour? Just enter a few simple values like Width of Mower and Mower Speed into the The Acres Per Hour Calculator, you can quickly determine how many acres you can mow in an hour.

What is Acres Per Hour?

Acres Per Hour (APH) is a measure of how many acres you can cover in an hour with your mower. This is particularly useful for farmers, landscapers, and anyone who needs to estimate their mowing efficiency.

How to Use the Calculator

To use the Acres Per Hour Calculator, follow these steps:

Enter the Width of Mower (inches): For example, input 60 in the Width of Mower field.
Enter the Mower Speed (MPH): For instance, input 5 in the Mower Speed field.
Enter the Acres Per Hour of Cutting: If you know this value, input it here. Otherwise, leave it blank to calculate.

The calculator will then compute the missing value based on the provided inputs.

Formula

The formula used to calculate Acres Per Hour is:

APH	Acres Per Hour of Cutting

How To Calculate Acres Per Hour ?

Example 1

Width of Mower: 72 inches
Mower Speed: 6 MPH

To calculate the Acres Per Hour of Cutting:

Convert the width from inches to feet:

\frac{72}{12}

$= 6$ feet

Calculate the distance covered per hour:

6 \times 5280 = 31680

feet

Convert the distance to acres:

\frac{31680}{43560} \approx 0.727

acres

Apply the efficiency factor:

0.727 \times 0.90 \approx 0.65

acres

So, the acres per hour of cutting is approximately 0.654 acres.

Example 2

Width of Mower: 48 inches
Mower Speed: 4 MPH

To calculate the Acres Per Hour of Cutting:

Convert the width from inches to feet:

\frac{48}{12} = 4

feet

Calculate the distance covered per hour:

4 \times 5280 = 21120

feet

Convert the distance to acres:

\frac{21120}{43560} \approx 0.485

acres

Apply the efficiency factor:

0.485 \times 0.90 \approx 0.436

acres

So, the acres per hour of cutting is approximately 0.436 acres.
