Well, who doesn't know what "six hundred square meters" is, if we're talking about a dacha? The expression has migrated to us from the times of the USSR.
In that era, citizens were very happy when they received a small plot of land outside the city – those same six hundred square meters – for a summer house.
People stood in line for dacha "hundred square meters", as well as for cars. But land plots were allocated to almost all families who wanted to have their own land.
However, the area of such plots was absolutely the same for everyone - six hundred square meters. Why so much? Because everything was calculated in advance.
The author of the calculation is the Soviet vegetable scientist Vitaly Edelshtein. He calculated that the annual vegetable consumption rate per person is 500.7 kg.
Afterwards, I determined that to grow such a volume of vegetables, a land area of 124.5 square meters was needed.
This figure was then multiplied by the family coefficient (in those years in the USSR, one family consisted on average of 3.9 to 4.3 people).
To the resulting figure, it remained to add the area required for planting garden trees.
This is how – as a result of the Soviet scientific approach with the corresponding calculations – the notorious six hundredths were obtained.
And in 1949, a resolution was adopted: to allocate six hundred square meters to Soviet citizens, according to the scientist’s calculations.
Earlier we talked about some things from the USSR that today can bring their owners a good income.
