I farm 6 hectares of onions in Kentucky. This season I'm dealing with rising soil salinity. I've tried what the local suppliers recommended, but results aren't improving.
I'm looking for an agronomist or experienced grower who can look at photos, soil-test results and my planting plan, and advise on what to change. A 30-minute call or exchange of messages would be fantastic.
I'm happy to share photos and a soil test. I'm using only what I can afford, so low-cost suggestions are best. I'll share how it goes - and what worked - to help others in the community.
Thank you so much.

Take care, Audrey. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Thanks for sharing this, Audrey. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from S茫o Paulo.
Hang in there, Audrey. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
