2020 Map of Cotton Plant

About this map

Cotton Plant stands as the primary hub in this corner of Woodruff County, where the agricultural grid meets the winding bottomlands of the Cache River. The landscape is defined by its drainage network, characterized by features like Roaring Slough, Cache Bayou, and Gum Flat Bayou that weave through the low-lying terrain. Smaller settlements such as Maberry, Daggett, and Dixie are scattered along the rural road network, reflecting the area's long-standing reliance on the timber and cotton economies of the Arkansas Delta. Local history and genealogy are preserved in the locations of Ebenezer Cem, Beard Cem, and Shelton Cem, which mark the community's early footprints. The presence of Ditch Number 14 and Little Clear Lake further illustrates the complex water management required in this fertile alluvial plain, where the boundary between Prairie and Woodruff Counties traces the western edge of the survey.
