Why? The farmer has no control over the weather and the drivers who don't slow down when visibility drops.
Today: Sunny, with a high near 66. Northwest wind 9 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 32 mph.

Knowing the hwy is SW of your very dry field, which day would be best to till it, today or tomorrow?
Aside from that, even the most inadvertent accident that kills multiple people is bound to make the person who caused it feel bad.
I’m down here investigating this incident right now. So far there is no proof that any farmer was in the field with a tractor or combine kicking the dust up. However there is proof that some of these farms have removed the fence rows and hedge rows that are supposed to brake up the wind. These measures were implemented after the Great Dust Bowl back in the 30’s. Some of the farmers want that land where the fence and hedge rows are for planting more crops. I have a feeling that will be addressed soon. There’s a great documentary on this subject called Kiss the Ground.
