The Confederate States Army victory left them in control of much of the interior of the Acadiana region.

Following the surrender of Port Hudson, two Union divisions were shifted to Donaldsonville by transports, to move inland and pacify the interior.

Then, Green's Confederates flung their might against the Union troops, which kept retiring although they tried to make stands at various points.

The Union troops eventually fell back to the protection of the guns in Fort Butler at Donaldsonville, about six miles from Kock’s Plantation.

Estimated casualties: 463 total (US 430; CS 33) The restored plantation house, built in 1847 by a leading sugar planter, is maintained as a private museum filled with period furnishings.
