Flat to gently rolling prairie dominates this county along the Kansas border, with the Salt Fork Arkansas River creating fertile bottom lands. The landscape consists primarily of High Plains shortgrass prairie with scattered playa lakes.

Large-scale wheat farming takes advantage of the deep, fertile soils and relatively flat terrain suitable for modern machinery. Cattle operations utilize wheat pasture in winter and native grass ranges, while center pivot irrigation supports some specialty crops.
