crop circles

Those are fields that are being irrigated or "watered" with center pivot irrigators. Basically a central point is over a source of water (a well) and the pipe is suspended above the ground connected to the water source at the center of the circle and the force of the water flowing through the pipe makes to pipe swivel around the central point as the pipe sprays water over the particular crop.

In the western United States where i live, we grow crops in circles because we have a "wheel" that waters the crops. It is like a giant sprinkler that moves around the feild then water is flowing through it since we dont get as much rain as Western Washington, but our soil is very fertle. So the large circles you see are crops, you can also see these "crop circles" if you zoom into perticular areas on google earth.

Those circles are caused by the irrigations systems. The arm is fixed in the center and moves in a circle.

I thought crop circles were mostly in England.
The 'Nazca lines' are crude drawings but I don't think there are any circles.
