Consultation and support
TriCycle is positioned as an expert company in the valuation of organic materials as well as entotechnologies and offers several R&D, consulting and support services, particularly for those who wish to develop livestock farms in an economy of proximity.
The use of our services could therefore be financed!
TriCycle is one of the experts in eco-responsible business practices and clean technologies listed in the Fonds Écoleader directory.
As such, our services could be funded as part of a project submitted to the financing program of the Fonds directory.
Some consulting services benefit from financial assistance offered through the Agriconseil networks through the 2018-2023 Advisory Services Program, under the Canadian Agricultural Partnership.
