Applied agricultural science · Advisory & bespoke modelling
When the question doesn't fit a model, bring it to the people who build them.
Our team built CANOPY. What can we do for you?
Our team built CANOPY. What can we do for you?
We work at the point where agronomy, animal science, economics, and risk meet — the cross-sector ground most consultancies and most academics leave uncovered. Every engagement carries the same discipline as the platform: methods mapped to published sources, uncertainty stated rather than hidden, and limitations documented. The deliverable is built to survive review by people who model for a living.
A production, risk, or scenario model built for your commodity, region, or portfolio — including questions CANOPY's standard modules don't yet cover. You own the result; we document how it was built.
Independent review of a model, a forecast, or an analytical method — yours or a third party's. We assess assumptions, calibration, and the honesty of the uncertainty, and report in language a non-modeller can act on.
Ex-ante and ex-post analysis for briefings, submissions, and RD&E priority-setting: what a shock, a levy, or a biosecurity event does to production and value, traced across sectors.
Technical due diligence, expert input, and second opinions for investors, lenders, and counsel who need an agricultural-science view they can stand behind.
The same research base behind CANOPY — Renouf, Bange, Nguyen, Hedayati, the NRC feeding standards, and the wider agronomic and animal-science literature — is the base we consult from.
Bespoke modelling, methodology assurance, and RD&E priority work.
Independent technical analysis for policy, briefings, and submissions.
Production-risk and exposure work, and review of internal or vendor models. (Engagements on request.)
Technical due diligence and expert opinion across the value chain.
Most advisors can write a report; fewer can build the model underneath it and show you every source. CANOPY exists because we do the second thing as a matter of course. When you engage us as consultants, you get that same standard — coupled, source-attributed, and reviewable — pointed at exactly your problem.
Send us the problem, your data, and your timeline, and we'll come back with how we'd approach it, what it would take, and what you'd be able to defend at the end.
