The Healthy Soils Program stems from the California Healthy Soils Initiative, a collaboration of state agencies and departments to promote the development of healthy soils on California’s farmlands and ranchlands.

Placer RCD was awarded funds from CDFA to administer the HSP Incentives Program to provide financial assistance for implementation of conservation management that improve soil health, sequester carbon and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2021 alone, Placer RCD was able to secure financial assistance to 12 producers.
