I farm 1 hectares of onions in Paraná. 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    • Keep going, Gabriela. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Biratnagar.

      • Sending love, Gabriela. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Curitiba.

        • wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. God bless

          • This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. All the best.

            • So sorry you're going through this, Gabriela. Your post was clear and honest. After 19 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.

              • Rooting for you. Small businesses are the heart of Curitiba. Hope you're open again soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Brest.

                    • Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Curitiba.
