Prairie grassland extends across gently rolling terrain, with the Arkansas River forming the northern boundary and creating fertile bottomland. Scattered timber grows along creek bottoms throughout the county.

Wheat farming and cattle ranching dominate agriculture, with many operations combining both enterprises. The level terrain and fertile soils make this area well-suited for grain production and mechanized farming.
