Write a detailed description of a gloomy scene outside farmland with sawdust and wood chips.

Steel troughs filled with steaming water line rows of thick shelves, each long basin delivering an acrid smell into the air. Softening wood chips line the bottom of each one, preparing them to be turned into pulp for paper. Shallow puddles mar the floor next to the troughs, slowly sinking into the dirt floor, while small piles of sawdust lie discarded in the corners.
