Plantation Management and Monitoring:

• Conduct routine garden visits to observe plantation condition and maintenance status.
• Implement and track silvicultural activities (weeding, pruning, thinning, fireline upkeep).

• Map high-risk gardens (fire, grazing, pests, drought stress) and follow up weekly.

Tree Survival Data Collection:

• Conduct scheduled survival assessments at defined post-planting milestones.
• Record accurate stocking, mortality, and health indicators using approved tools.
• Provide survival feedback to farmers and agree on improvement actions.
• Update and register farmer/garden details not captured during PSR.

Farmer Engagement and Education (Technical Focus):

• Train farmers on correct planting, maintenance, and protection techniques.
• Demonstrate practical silviculture methods in gardens (spacing, pruning, thinning).
• Reinforce farmer responsibilities under signed contracts (contracts led by Farmer Relations).
• Mobilize farmers for seasonal maintenance campaigns and technical meetings.

Coordination and Community Engagement:

• Work with local leaders to promote protection of plantations and compliance.
• Support mobilisation of farmer groups for training and planting events.
• Identify model gardens and farmers for demonstrations.
• Coordinate with Farmer Relations counterparts on joint farmer sessions and issues.

Reporting and Documentation:

• Submit weekly reports on silviculture done, survival findings and risks.
• Maintain garden files with clear activity history and survival records.
• Document mortality causes and corrective actions taken per garden.
• Provide evidence packs for audits and carbon verification when needed.

Compliance and Environmental Protection:

• Enforce fire prevention and environmental protection practices in all gardens.
• Ensure safe, responsible use of inputs and tools.
• Report serious environmental or safety incidents immediately.
• Promote sustainable land-use principles with farmers.

Support to NH Operations During Peak Seasons:

• Assist NH teams during planting peaks with mobilisation and site readiness checks.
• Support seedling transport monitoring and planting quality supervision.
• Help validate PSR data and correct garden records where needed.
• Report establishment issues to supervisors for immediate action.

Any other tasks as assigned by management:

• Participate in training or pilots as directed.
• Support peer coordinators in high-load areas when reassigned.
• Contribute to community consultations as needed.
• Support emergency response actions during fire/pest events.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs):

• Plantation quality and compliance with standards.
• Farmer technical compliance and participation.
• Accurate and timely survival data submitted.
• Service demand and remobilisation levels.
• Timely reporting and resource accountability.
