I farm 4 hectares of tomatoes in Maharashtra. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone, Jyoti. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Barranquilla donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Jyoti. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Dar es Salaam.
Wishing you peace, Jyoti. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to London so I could bring a meal. Blessings
