They're just in a rectangular grid. Any rectangular grid exhibits the
straight-line phenomenon you're talking about. Check out this 3D
example in Java. Click it to change the view.

Remember that there are caskets underneath, so any arrangement other
than rectangular would waste more space.

Webinfo,
plant in straight lines at the same distance from each other and at
the same interval,  i.e., on straight lines at equidistance from each
other that run at a 90 degree angle to the the first set of lines.

Just assuming that your 10 hectares is a field 200 x 500 meters, use
rows of 1 meter along each side  - or they could be two meters on one
side and just one meter on the other side.

Not a good way to plant grains or sugar beets ...
