The STAR + program has a new name, it is now called the Colorado Soil Health Program (CSHP)!

Do you want to improve the soil quality of your farm or ranch? The CSHP program is a great tool to support you as you incorporate soil health best practices into your operation.

The Colorado Soil Health Program connects you with local conservation experts who you will work with to evaluate your systems, assess your land’s needs, and help you incorporate soil health management practices into your daily operations.

The Colorado Soil Health Program provides financial and technical assistance to reduce the risk of trying new methods and connects you with other producers already using soil health principles.

Incorporate the five soil health principles on your land:

  • Increased Biodiversity

  • Soil Armor

  • Minimizing Soil Disturbance

  • Continual Live Plant / Root

  • Livestock Integration

Developed by farmers for farmers.
