It was a great pleasure to meet up again on Tuesday evening for the 4th edition of the Salon International de l'Agriculture medal ceremony, a tradition revived in 2022.
And it was in the setting of Le Chalet Des Iles Bois de Boulogne, a veritable parenthesis of nature in the heart of the city, that the evening was held - a venue worthy of what this distinction embodies.
🎖CENECA is proud to have presented these awards to those who work to bring the Show to life, but also to promote agriculture and the territories, with passion, high standards and commitment.
Beyond the honors, it's also about rediscovering the spirit of the show: a festive spirit, of encounters , of conviviality, around great causes, but also around a table, a well-deserved moment of pause - in an often heavy agricultural news.
📺The evening began with a special program hosted by Jean-Paul Hebrard TVAGRI, giving the floor to several medal winners.
