The Paris International Agricultural Show is much more than an annual event – it’s a collective journey, driven by dedicated women and men. For the fourth consecutive year, the show has chosen to say thank you.

Congratulations and thank you

During a warm and festive evening at the Chalet des Îles, in the heart of Paris, several individuals were awarded the Salon International de l’Agriculture Medal. This symbolic recognition honours those who, in their own way, help the show shine – and with it, the entire agricultural world. Whether they are exhibitors, partners, organisers or loyal admirers of the event, their commitment deserves to be celebrated.

What about the future? It’s being written with ambition: greater international reach, even more safety and hospitality for all, and increased transparency for both exhibitors and visitors. One thing is certain: the Salon International de l’Agriculture will continue to celebrate everything that is beautiful, good, modern, and traditional – in short, the kind of agriculture we love.

Congratulations to the 2025 award recipients, and thank you to all those who make this great adventure possible, year after year.
