# Illustrative output: M&E plan excerpt

**Draft status:** Proposed plan for team review. **Intake:** Uploaded fictional brief.

## 1. Context and intended use
Riverbend Cooperative farmer training runs in three districts during 2024-2026. The board reviews progress to inform continuation of follow-up visits. [Evidence: `input.md#Program`; `input.md#Use`]

## 2. Monitoring and learning questions
- Are planned training activities reaching the intended farmers?
- What reported barriers should the board consider when deciding about follow-up visits?

These are proposed questions, pending board confirmation.

## 3. Indicator and collection matrix

| Indicator | Definition/source | Collection and reporting | Role / QA | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of farmers completing soil-cover training | Framework target 120 by Dec 2026; attendance sheets. Completion rule not supplied. | Quarterly reporting stated; collection schedule not supplied. | Role and QA procedures not supplied. | Preserve target; confirm definition and responsibilities. |

## 4-11. Remaining components
- **Methods/tools:** Attendance sheets are the stated source. Tool validation and any follow-up survey are decisions required.
- **Schedule:** Reporting is quarterly; collection cadence and review dates need confirmation.
- **Disaggregation:** Not supplied.
- **Data quality/protection:** No procedures supplied. Propose confirming unique participant identification, completeness checks, access controls, and retention rules.
- **Analysis and limitations:** Report counts by quarter only when the definition and period basis are consistent. Do not infer practice change from attendance.
- **Reporting, learning, and use:** Proposed board review before the continuation decision; meeting date not supplied.
- **Roles:** Not supplied; assign responsible roles before implementation.
- **Resources and risks:** Budget and staff capacity not supplied; feasibility remains unassessed.

## Decisions before adoption
Confirm completion rule, collection schedule, disaggregation, roles, quality checks, data protection, board review date, and resources. No targets or commitments were added.
