This position is responsible for the establishment and management of on-farm fertilizer trials for various smallholder farming systems in Mozambique. This position works closely with farmers, various industry partners (e.g. fertilizer companies), and public institutions such as Mozambique's Institute of Agricultural Research (IIAM), universities, and polytechnic institutes among others to discuss the project's progress, its impact, and explore a quick avenue to disseminate impactful results to end users.

- Collect soil samples and ensure nutrient analyses are done following the guidelines provided by their supervisor
- Interpretation and implementation of the research protocols for on-farm trials

External contacts are required to retrieve, relay or explain information and in some cases to negotiate (e.g., drawing up memorandums of understanding).
