I farm 3 hectares of coffee in Cairo. This season I'm dealing with failing irrigation in the dry months. 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    So sorry you're going through this, Ahmed. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Nashik

        Rooting for you, Ahmed. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best

          Thinking of you, Ahmed. Small businesses are the heart of Heliopolis. Hope you're open again soon. After 23 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything
