## Job Description

### About the Programme

Good Nature Agro’s Perennial Program is designed to develop a new generation of commercially successful farmers while strengthening GNA’s future supply chain. The programme provides agricultural professionals with access to land, practical support, and a pathway to build viable farming enterprises.

The eight-month internship gives interns the opportunity to learn directly from experienced Perennial Farmers, developing skills required for a potential career in agricultural leadership — including a possible transition to a Field Supervisor role.

Each intern will be allocated a small production block to manage, progressively taking on greater responsibility throughout the placement.

### 5.Commercial & Financial Understanding

### 6.Learning & Professional Development
