I farm 3 hectares of cotton in Madrid. This season I'm dealing with pests destroying the seedlings. 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 so much.

Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Lagos this morning. Take care
Thinking of you, Ximena. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Tucson so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Jaipur.
Thinking of you and your family. Small businesses are the heart of Madrid. Hope you're open again soon. Put this on a community board in Lalitpur this morning.
