I farm 5 hectares of mango trees in Metro Manila. This season I'm dealing with a fungus that keeps returning after treatment. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Quezon City
Hope the shop reopens soon. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
Sending good thoughts, Carlo. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted
Small businesses are the heart of Quezon City. Hope you're open again soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Thanks for sharing this, Carlo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 12 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Marseille.
Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Latina
