Chemonics International seeks multiple technical experts for the anticipated USAID-funded Feed the Future Nigeria Value Chain Activity. We are looking for individuals who have a passion for making a difference in the lives of people around the world. The activity is expected to improve agricultural productivity by connecting smallholder farmers to resources and promoting access to and adoption of new technologies; develop inclusive and resilient markets whereby farmers, producer organizations and MSMEs are linked to commercial supply chains; strengthen household and community resilience to shocks and stresses; improve the nutrition of women and children; and strengthen policy systems related to resilience, agriculture, and nutrition. The Activity is expected to focus on current Feed the Future target value chains—maize, rice, soybeans, cowpeas, and aquaculture—in current target states including Adamawa, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Gombe, Kaduna, Kebbi, Niger, and Yobe.
