An imposed exercise for any presidential campaign, the Agricultural Show once again attracts many contenders for the Elysee Palace who pose among the animals, even if their agenda is upset by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Tap on the cows' ass, wine, rum and other beverages tasting, and selfie with Neige, the event's mascot, welcome to "policies on the farm".

  • The president and now candidate for re-election Emmanuel Macron inaugurates the 58th Agricultural Show on Saturday February 26.

  • It is then its Prime Minister Jean Castex who provides the after-sales service for the campaign, with a necklace around his neck and a rum tasting.

  • On February 28, three candidates meet in the aisles of the Agricultural Show.

    Fabien Roussel, Communist Party candidate, has even made a new friend!

  • "Ok, ok, guys, don't get upset!

    I leave the cow to you”, seems to say Fabien Roussel to himself.

  • Struggling in the polls with a slipping campaign, Valérie Pécresse is trying to cheer herself up.

    Note that Gérard Larcher, the President of the Senate, is in top form...

  • And presto, it seems to work!

  • As a result, Anne Hidalgo, still below 3% of voting intention, chooses the same treatment as Valérie Pécresse!

  • On March 1, we meet a few ministers.

    Jean-Michel Blanquer, the Minister of National Education, who tells his holidays in Ibiza to the cow mascot, Neige.

  • Eric Dupond-Moretti, the Minister of Justice, is trying to take the bull by the horns… Nothing good for the judiciary! 

  • On March 2, the world champion in all categories of the Agricultural Show, Jean Lassalle, begins by cuddling Snow.

  • Dances, songs, tastings of beverages and “paquito” will follow, as our journalist on site tells us.

  • Also on March 2, Maine Le Pen returns to the Agricultural Show.

  • And tries to sympathize with this Charolais breed animal..

  • But he doesn't seem to agree!

  • On March 3, Yannick Jadot chose a smaller size!

  • And even at the level of glasses of beer!

  • Relieved to have obtained the 500 signatures, Nicolas Dupont-Aignan can relax in good company.

  • Here, a former president who is not a presidential candidate!

  • On March 4, Eric Zemmour gives himself a little dance...

  • “Why are they all coming to piss me off…” Neige seems to be saying to herself… Only two more days to go and it's over for this year!
