Rolling prairie and red hills create diverse topography between the Cimarron River valley and Salt Fork Arkansas River watersheds. Scattered salt plains and gypsum outcrops add unique geological features to the grassland landscape.

Wheat production dominates crop farming, while cattle operations utilize both wheat pasture and native grass ranges across the varied terrain. Some irrigated crops and specialty farming occur near Enid's grain handling and processing facilities.
