I farm 6 hectares of olive trees in California. This season I'm dealing with failing irrigation in the dry months. 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, Rowan. I hope things turn around soon. God bless
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Los Angeles.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Put this on a community board in Galway this morning. Love from Galway
Hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
