Colorado Ag Leaders
The Colorado Ag Forum is managed by members of the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Program, or CALP Class 16. CALP fellows are agricultural professionals from across Colorado, bringing a mix of diverse perspectives on agriculture – from extension agents to viticulturists, and from feedlot managers to policy analysts. Through the CALP program, these emerging leaders are being immersed in professional training and experiencing agricultural production across the state first-hand. Want to learn more?
