I farm 2 hectares of tomatoes in Metro Manila. This season I'm dealing with yields that have halved for two seasons. 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.

you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
take care, Francis. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Faisalabad!
Good luck. Hope the shop reopens soon. After 15 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Hope it all works out, Francis. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
Stay strong, Francis. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. After 9 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Iztapalapa.
