• Experience working directly with rural communities, women’s collectives, or marginalized groups.

Key Responsibilities

• Organize and conduct practical hands-on training workshops on spawn inoculation, cropping room management, and post-harvest handling.
• Ensure standard operating procedures (SOPs) for organic/safe mushroom production are followed at the household and community unit levels.
• Document farmer queries and connect them with agricultural/mycology experts for troubleshooting.

3. Supply Chain & Market Linkages

• Build and maintain relationships with local buyers, mandis, cooperatives, and retail partners to secure fair pricing for producers.
• Manage inventory, raw material stock, and equipment procurement logs.

4. Monitoring, Evaluation & Reporting

• Track project progress against Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)—such as number of producers trained, yield per unit, and income generated.
• Maintain farmer-level production databases, attendance registers, and distribution records.
• Assist the Project Manager in drafting monthly, quarterly, and donor-specific progress reports.
• Conduct baseline and endline data collection for impact assessment.

5. Stakeholder & Community Liaison
