I farm 5 hectares of maize in Central Region. This season I'm dealing with yields that have halved for two seasons. 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. I hope life is good to you.

  • Keep going, James. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Kampala.

      Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Kraków donated after I showed her your page.

      • hope the shop reopens soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

        • You're not alone, James. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings

          • Good luck, James. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes!
