from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Giornata , or Tagwerk, was an Italian field measure. The measure applied in Sicily , in the provinces of Piedmont and Savoy , but also in Turin . The measure in Ragusa also applied .

The Sicilian measure was

  • 1 Giornata = 100 Tavole / Pertiche squares = 400 square trabucci = 38.009588 Ar

The measure in Biella was somewhat different . Here a giornata was 4 tavoles smaller. In Cattaro in Ragusa it was called Giornata d 'arare and it corresponded to 2 ½ Dalmatian Campi Padovani.
