An agronomist's advice for Anyango's cotton farm in Western Region
Anyango, a smallholder in Western Region, is facing rising soil salinity and needs advice from an agronomist.
Anywhere in the world792 views
I farm 3 hectares of cotton in Western Region. 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.
