I farm 2 hectares of cassava in Florida. 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

best of luck, Sadie. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Best of luck, Sadie. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
wishing you the best, Sadie. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
thinking of you, Sadie. It takes guts to ask. Well done
Keep going, Sadie. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Venice
Sending love. Hope the shop reopens soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best!
Good luck, Sadie. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings
take care, Sadie. Shared this with my family!
Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Orlando
