It's all to do with the soil. If the soil is too sandy, rocky, clayey, acidic, alkaline, saline, or shallow, then it's not good for crops. Topography also plays a big role: steep, rolling hills or mountain sides are not good for driving the tractor on! Many areas are also protected by private landowners, state/provincial law, or federal law so that they maintain their natural existence without having to be subject to the plow. Many areas that are not protected, in the author of this answer's opinion, and are turned into crops, should be reverted back to grassland or natural habitat to improve and maintain the integrity of the land.
