Warren County straddles the Missouri River with fertile bottomlands to the north and rolling hills of the Missouri River Hills region to the south. The terrain transitions from river bluffs and terraces near the Missouri River to wooded hills and valleys inland.
Warren County agriculture utilizes rich Missouri River bottomlands for intensive corn and soybean production while southern areas support cattle operations on grass pastures and hay production. The county benefits from both prime agricultural soils and proximity to St. Louis markets.
