Glider pilots gain altitude by circling over a large plowed field because a plowed area gives off heat. Heat rises so the glider takes advantage of that to gain altitude.
Glider pilots can gain height flying over a large plowed field because the dark soil absorbs more heat from the sun, creating thermal currents that rise and lift the glider to higher altitudes. This process is known as thermal soaring, where the warm air rising from the ground helps the glider gain altitude without the need for an engine.
Ploughed fields are generally darker than bare unploughed ground, or bare rock, or vegetation. This means they absorb more heat from the sun (because they reflect less light). This in turn heats the air above them, making it rise; glider pilots can take advantage of this rising air (called a "thermal") to gain elevation.
