Description:

Welcome to The Agricultural Water Quality Program The AWQP is a bridge between cutting-edge agricultural research at CSU, agricultural producers, and Colorado state policy makers. The AWQP is composed of teams within three different organizations: CSU Extension, Colorado Department of Agriculture and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. The CSU Extension branch of the AWQP is responsible for providing the research, education and training on agricultural Best Management Practices (BMPs). These BMPs target methods to minimalize the impact of fertilizer and pesticide applications on Colorado s drinking water sources. The AWQP program builds on a foundation of nearly three decades of research experience, the evaluation of farmer driven practices, and ongoing stakeholder feedback and contributions. The success of our program is rooted in the strong relationships cultivated over the years working with the agricultural community and numerous private and public entities in the state of Colorado. Agriculture is an unpredictable and ever-changing industry, and the AWQP seeks to adapt, change and focus on the most current needs of our stakeholders. As an unbiased science-based program, the AWQP pursues data to support producer and policy maker decision making in Colorado. Agriculture and water are inseparable in a semiarid region such as Colorado. Adequate clean water supplies for drinking, agriculture, industry, and recreation are critical for the lifestyle Coloradans enjoy. ~Colorado Water Institute Special Report 23 CSU Agricultural Water Quality Program Department of Soil and Crop Sciences Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523-1170 This website last updated: December 16, 2020 Website Design by Kierra Jewell
