Crossword Genius

Care about land measurement (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acre

'land measurement' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'care about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'care' with letters rearranged gives 'ACRE'.

(Other definitions for acre that I've seen before include "Unit of area of 4,840 square yards" , "Area measure - Israeli port - Brazilian state" , "Muslims here besieged" , "Not a lot of land" , "Crusaders battlefield, now in Israel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
