What are Dekastere and Liter

A Dekastere, often abbreviated as daSt, is a unit of volume in the metric system, primarily used in forestry. It denotes a volume of one cubic decameter, or more commonly, 10 cubic meters. This unit is not widely used outside forestry and is valuable for measuring large quantities of loosely packed material, such as wood chips, sawdust, or soil.
