I farm 5 hectares of olive trees in Davao del Sur. 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.
Glad we found this place.

Sending good thoughts, Gerald. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Cairns.
Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Gerald. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together. All the best.
