I'm sure it's an air tractor as they have such a distinctive shape. What's the point or use of a crop duster on floats?

There are several of those at the Chico Airport. The ones here are being used for dropping water for fire suppression. I am sure there might be other uses as well. They look cool and odd all at the same time. In a sorta size 15” shoe on a 13 year old kid kinda way.
