The air "shimmers" or "waves" when a lot of heat rises off of a surface.
This can also be seen on cars and on the roofs of houses.
Sometimes, it is made visible by steam or smoke, but on a hot summer day, these gasses are not present to trace the heat waves.

Step-by-step explanation:
The soil in the farmland contains some water.On a hot summer day, this water of soil evaporates to form water vapour.The water vapour coming out of the soil reflects the sunlight irregularly due to which the air above the soil seems to shimmer. This is why the air above the land seems to shimmer
