I'm not really sure on this,
Seems it could be some form of crop irrigation (which makes sense) as there are some small reservoirs nearby.
...I would rule out center-pivot irrigation, I'm familiar with those... and this does not look like what I know from the western US dry states. Could it be some sort of flood - style irrigation for crops relying on runoff?
...If so... and if it works, it could be a brilliant concept.
...Found one picture that was supposedly taken in that area:

...Sorry for not imbedding that picture... maybe someone else can help on that end.
...Very interesting, whatever it is.

Fine, I will concede. Chris Kleynhans (the man who said he knows the farmer) came back to me with an answer after I asked him to share a close up pic.

...I don't see any photos of the farm itself. But, i am not gonna argue on Tube as even the original uploader inboxed me and said she believes him. Her channel, so i said thank you and bye-bye
