THE CONCOURS GÉNÉRAL AGRICOLE...
This year, during the International Agricultural Show, the 130th edition of the Concours Général Agricole took place. This competition celebrates the richness and diversity of flavors, showcasing French local products, wines, and livestock, while rewarding producers committed to taste and quality — promoting French excellence and craftsmanship.
Each year, five competition categories are awarded:
- The breeding animal competition, rewarding France’s best breeding animals since 1870

- The product competition, a reference event and mark of quality since its inception
- The young professionals competition, revealing new talent through five dedicated contests
- The agroecological practices competition, which honors the agroecological balance achieved by farmers on their grasslands
To ensure quality results, the jury is made up of professionals and consumers, all trained to refine their palates and accurately assess the products entered into the competition.
