Dans les coulisses du Salon de l'Agriculture

The Paris International Agricultural Show is 200,000 square meters of countryside right in the heart of Paris. Far from the tranquility of the countryside, 600,000 people are expected. They come to admire the finest animals in France up close… The show is a competition machine! A medal here is the ultimate recognition; breeders prepare for it all year long. Sophie breeds Salers cattle in the Cantal region and is participating in her first national championship. Facing her is a formidable competitor: Thierry, her partner! In the equine hall, Nicolas and Diabolo, a Poitou donkey, will put on a show to win the donkey trophy. In the evening, when the doors close, the logistics teams take over. From the most prestigious to the most whimsical competitions, not forgetting the unexpected daily lives of the animals… Welcome behind the scenes of the superlative Paris International Agricultural Show!
