Interesting, Cushoo, and likely a difference in state law or perhaps a misunderstanding of my previous post.
Though the Duke Energy easement across my land includes portions that cannot currently be accessed other than by foot without entry upon areas of my land not defined within the easement, Duke Energy has no right to build access roads, bridges, etc., to such areas upon such areas not defined by the Duke easement nor can they obtain such right by necessity, prescription or otherwise, so long as I defend my rights. Of course, Duke could build access roads, bridges, etc., upon the area of the land defined within their easement (I certainly hope that they do so but such is beyond the reasonable realm of likelihood.) but Duke cannot do so for any reason upon other lands not defined within their easement without prior consent and/or compensation. Moreover, damage incurred to the land defined within the easement must be repaired to the condition prior to such entry and has been done multiple times in my case.
Perhaps, I do not understand the OP's situation (I did not read the earlier posts.). In my case, the land defined within the Duke Energy easement is pasture land rather than crop ground but some is very steep and subject to erosion if the ground cover is disturbed. Duke Energy has been quite willing to restore my land (within the easement) to conditions similar to that prior to heavy vehicle traffic each time that such entry has been necessary but most (all?) subcontractors much less so until I assert my rights. I make a point of keeping my Duke Energy contact information for the regional vegetation management person up to date so as to name drop on the tree trimmers when necessary, which has become increasingly necessary (and effective) in recent years.

Today's Featured Article - A Question for Dads This recent topic from the Tractor Talk discussion board is being highlighted because it is an awesome display of the caliber of individuals that have made this site their own. The young person asking questions received positive feedback and advice from total strangers who "told it like it is" with the care many reserve for their own kids. The advice is timeless... so although it isn't necessarily antique tractor related, it will be prominently displayed in our archives to honor those who have the courage to ask and those who have the courage to respond in an honest, positive manner.
