Suisun Marsh Waterfowl Production Program
Ducks Unlimited's Suisun Marsh Waterfowl Production Program (completed in 2004) utilized public-private partnerships to enhance wetlands and associated uplands in the Suisun Marsh, located in Solano County. The Suisun Marsh is one of the most important production areas for mallards. More than 75 percent of mallards wintering in California were produced in California, particularly in the Suisun Marsh.
