It would be nice if this mod could also be used to automatically place agricultural towers in the spots with optimal resource generation (most usable squares) given a certain level of technology (nothing/artificial soil/overgrowth soil).

Limiting placement of multiple towers to square grids would be totally fine (due to both complexity and (potentially O(exp(n))) runtime constraints for the general case); trying to place power poles on (currently) unusable terrain instead of at a fixed offset to the tower would be a plus.
Placing seed/output belt blueprints would also be nice (optimizing underground position seems easy, since you only have to keep track of at most min(underground_length,tower spacing) different "costs" when planning a belt pair ((basically slightly optimized Dijkstra over possible underground connections)) ).

Sorry but I'm gonna say it's out of scope for this mod. You have some suggestions how to implement it so maybe an idea for your own agriculture planner mod?
