My hunch on the crop squares is that where you are traveling, they get enough moisture that either they don't have to water, or use channel like irrigation and can thusly farm the whole field.<BR/><BR/>I knew that this was a hot topic and was probably making numerous people loose sleep, so I jumped right on it with all of my "Blonde, Midwestern Smarts"!!<BR/><BR/>......Oh, and then we get into crop rotation. That's where you see wide field of golden wheat alternating with the brown dirt of the fallow fields. They do that to give the fields a chance to "rest" every other year.<BR/><BR/>More than you ever hoped to know about farm fields....thank you very much....
