I should also mention that many of these squares have circles in them. It's as if the farmers deliberately plowed their fields in a circular pattern using the center of the square to form a perfect circle within that particular square.
What is that all about?

The circulars are irrigated fields. long sprinklers on a pivot. zoom in on a satellite pic and you can see them

Might be the watering system. On the ground, you'll see these huge contraptions with a center, in sections and on wheels, which water the crops and can be moved round the central point to get water to all the crops.

The circles are from automatic irrigation.

Irrigation.
Dry areas use circular fields because you can sink and artesian well in the center, and have a boom with sprayers that rotates slowly around the
central feed.
I'm not sure whether they plow in a circular pattern, or in rows approximating the irrigated circle.
