I remember a field being prepared to plant rice for the first time. A man came from another state to lay out levees in what had seemed to me a perfectly flat field, in order to divide it into a series of level 'terraces'. Obviously he could envision the flow of water well enough to earn professional fees for doing this.
I love it! Do you know what crop is being irrigated here?
Probably corn for animal feed or zucchini but I don't know.
Looks like a really cool maze.
