For Data Collectors

Data Collectors (DCs) are responsible for physically visiting farmers and collecting their data using the Android app. The app allows them to see pre-assigned farmers or onboard new farmers from scratch. Importantly, they can work offline, syncing their data once they have access to the internet again.
