I farm 5 hectares of cassava in Bangkok. This season I'm dealing with pests destroying the seedlings. 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in St. Petersburg but we're thinking of you. Greetings from St. Petersburg.

        Wishing you peace, Tawan. Shared this with my family. After 20 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything!

          Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Bang Khen.

            Take care, Tawan. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

              Stay strong, Tawan. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Hamilton.
