those circles are fields of crops. They use an irrigation system that is secured at the centre of the field and then rotates resulting in round areas. Some places use irrigation that moves across the field in a straight line.

The circles are part of Canadian Forces Base Suffield, Canada’s largest military base (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFB_Suffield). If you zoom in and out and pan around, you can see bomb and artillery craters ect. Ironically, CFB suffield also contains a wildlife reserve which is one of the few remaining areas of wild prairie grassland.
