According to Mota, the managers are employed for two years under fixed-term employment contracts to support local cooperative operations. At the end of the two-year term, Agrinas will evaluate its operational needs to determine if the contracts should be extended. Mota also mentioned the possibility of reassigning the managers to other cooperatives.",
