Easy? Maybe not so!
(1) It is not that easy to measure these fields by eye, so use area measurement tool
(2) Measure fields in side the red box
(3) There are 4 fields: 1 medium and 3 large
(4) Which one is dominant?
Count the yellow cells!
Medium- 12 cells!
Large – 13 cells!
Dominant field size - large
Note: in this example, fields are delineated by one main road and a
few secondary roads that separate fields with different management
and different crop types

Two different colors because these are two different images in Google maps. It is a one very large field.
You do not need to measure area because this field is definitely larger than the blue box.
