I think theyre centre-point irrigation circles - you can see some which have a definite centre. Colour is dark-green and theyre about 1 km diameter. Theres an admin centre there with tracks to it - could actually be a pumpin station for underground water. Theres also an oil burn on the edge of the sand sea to the east. I think theyre in Libya.
Nice view!

Economics. IT cost money to hire someone to move ground laid irrigation pipes. Also you need several connections per field to the water. With circle irrigation you only have one point for water and automatic start and stop.
