Colorado 2008 Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP)

Invasive Plant Program

Program Education Campaign

In an ongoing effort to eradicate and control noxious weeds, or invasive plant species, in Colorado, the Looks Can Kill education campaign was developed this year. It is designed to provide our employees and the public specific information about invasive plant species which have been targeted for suppression and control using Environmental Quality Incentives Program state funds.

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

General Program Information

The EQIP Colorado Invasive Plant Program is a voluntary program for landowners who want to improve the productivity of rangeland and riparian lands for agriculture and wildlife by reducing the impact of noxious weeds.  Ten project areas throughout Colorado, all of which have an existing and ongoing invasive plant species or weed management initiative, were approved for funding assistance to suppress and control the spread of targeted noxious weeds and improve the quality of desirable plant communities.
