I farm 2 hectares of coffee in Tamil Nadu. This season I'm dealing with failing irrigation in the dry months. 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.
Thank you so much.

Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Pretoria this morning.
Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this. Small businesses are the heart of Madurai. Hope you're open again soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Hope it all works out, Sunita. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
