The SOMMET DE L’ÉLEVAGE (LIVESTOCK SUMMIT) will be held from 1 to 4 October 2024, in Clermont-Ferrand, France.

- More than 130 conferences covering all the current hot topics in farming
- Several fun and convivial evenings organised by the Young Farmers Union, the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region, and the dairy sector, to name just a few events…
For Fabrice Berthon, the show’s General Manager, “This 2024 edition is already looking very good. The exhibitors are almost complete (96% of show space has already been booked) with over 4 months until the start of the show.
It’s going to be an exceptional event. At a time when agriculture is facing major challenges, our event throws light on the many issues facing livestock farmers, such as replacing the current generation of farmers, young people setting up in business, farmers’ quality of life, improving incomes, climate change, animal welfare, etc. They come to us to learn more about the challenges they ultimately face. The SOMMET DE L’ÉLEVAGE gives them solutions, ideas and perspectives that they may not find elsewhere. All in the festive, friendly atmosphere for which our event is world renowned. Because that too is all part of the SOMMET, 4 days of sharing, chatting and laughing, it’s some valuable down time for everyone!”
