I farm 5 hectares of olive trees in England. 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

you're not alone. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
wishing you peace, Pankaj. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Leeds.
Sending love, Pankaj. Hope you make a strong comeback. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Sending love, Pankaj. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Munich donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
hope things get better soon, Pankaj. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Leeds
sending love, Pankaj. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
Hope it all works out, Pankaj. Hope the shop reopens soon. Love from Québec
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Raleigh so I could bring a meal
keep going, Pankaj. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Novosibirsk but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
