Farm advice wanted: pests destroying the seedlings on a 5-hectare plot
A short consultation could save a season's tomatoes harvest.

I farm 5 hectares of tomatoes in Canterbury. 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.
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you the best, Jayden. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
