Residing in Illinois, I am familiar with big cylindrical bales of hay. My problem with that theory is that the bales are almost as large as the structure that is to the top of the picture. Those are awfully big hay bales. Ive seen large bales, but nothing the size of a house.
Straw bales vary in size and shape with a standard bale being 900mm longx450mmdeepx350mm high. You can also find large bales that are 8x4x4m with the largest being 8x4x2m and require mechanical lifting to transport them.

Can you show me how you come up with 75ft? I am not seeing that at all. I estimate maybe 50ft going by the key at the bottom right corner.

Figure the ruts in the driveway are about 6'-8' apart, makes the circles 15'-20' in diameter. So they haphazardly dump the hay bales and the cows come feed on them and spread them out, muddying the outer perimeters?
Yes that could be and is even consistent with the coloration of the circles, which seem to have a smaller lighter circle inside (maybe remnants of hay?) and a darker circle surrounding it (The muddy outer perimeter).
