An agronomist's advice for Sunil's potatoes farm in California
A short consultation could save a season's potatoes harvest.
Anywhere in the world796 views
I farm 6 hectares of potatoes in California. 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.

Best of luck. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Thinking of Oakland
Hope you get there. We're a small family in Olinda but we're thinking of you.
Sending strength, Sunil. Shared it with a few friends!
Good luck, Sunil. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together.
So sorry you're going through this, Sunil. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Eldoret
Thanks for sharing this, Sunil. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to New York so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Oakland
Stay strong, Sunil. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
You're not alone. Hope the shop reopens soon. Put this on a community board in Limerick this morning.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Oakland.
hang in there, Sunil. Hope you get there. Greetings from Nashik.
Keep going, Sunil. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Jakarta Barat
Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from San Diego.
Sending love. Small businesses are the heart of Oakland. Hope you're open again soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
Sending love, Sunil. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
hope things get better soon, Sunil. Hope the shop reopens soon. Put this on a community board in Kasarani this morning.
Thinking of you, Sunil. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Peshawar!
