To calculate the perimeter of the field, we need to sum up the lengths of all its sides.

Looking at the diagram, the side lengths are:

• 9 m
• 11 m
• 6 m
• 7 m
• 2 m
• 17 m

Now, we can add these values together:

$\text{Perimeter} = 9 + 11 + 6 + 7 + 2 + 17 = 52 \, \text{m}$

The perimeter of the field is 52 meters.
