Campbell County features level to gently rolling glaciated plains with numerous prairie potholes and shallow lakes scattered throughout. The terrain consists of fertile drift prairie with occasional low hills and wetland complexes.

Agriculture emphasizes small grain production, particularly spring wheat, along with cattle ranching and some row crop production. The shorter growing season and variable moisture favor wheat and barley over corn in much of the county.
