well, believe me, there are some big challenges farming in the Loess hills.
Things like farming between terraces as big as a house, steep places you can easily tip over a tractor, ditches that if not controlled turn into canyons. And the river bottoms where the flat land is also has it's own challenges with poorly drained Zook soils that when it dries out in August, it cracks down deep tearing the corn plant roots away from the main plant, starving it and of course reducing greatly yields. I also farm east of the hills in some glacier till hills that are not as steep, but have rocks , and wet seeps on the side slopes. And in a wet spring or fall, you can get a tractor stuck in. No pick-nic
