I used to land electric powered gliders in wheat fields. Works good until they get the big heads on them!

woodnears, since you own a field out in the country, what would you think if you saw someone you did not know flying a plane over your field?

as long as it wasnt a giant plane i wouldnt mind, however people who dont ask permission would be kicked off. i am an easy going person! In kansas a lot of people grow hybrid wheats with short stocks to withstand wind and hail. there are people out there that make a living off of crop insurance!
