Project Details

The Colorado Soil Health Program (CSHP) is a groundbreaking, voluntary initiative that supports farmers and ranchers in adopting innovative conservation practices that enhance soil health and promote sustainable agriculture. Since its inception in 2021, the program has provided scientific, technical, and financial assistance to hundreds of producers, improving soil health and climate resilience across thousands of acres of agricultural land.

As a key partner, IN-RICHES strengthens the CSHP by delivering the scientific foundation necessary for local technical support and guiding comprehensive assessments of soil health, climate impacts, and the socio-economic outcomes of conservation practices. This collaborative, science-driven approach ensures that agricultural policies and programs in Colorado are built on rigorous data and real-world impact.
