Initially, I was thinking that the grids were for some kind of military exercise, for locating and targeting... the grids could be pretty old, even WWII vintage. Russotto might be right, it could also be part of one of the Soviet Unions large scale agricultural stupidities. That would fit with ignoring terrain. Each plot could be assigned a crop and the layout might facilitate an irrigation network. The lines extending out might mean that its just unfinished...In other words, I haven't a clue.
Maybe it was a shortlived plan to breakup one of the old farm co-ops around the time of the USSRs collapse.... still no clue
