The 38th edition of SPACE will take place from Tuesday, September 17 to Thursday, September 19 at the Rennes Exhibition Centre, offering an exceptional opportunity for the global animal farming community to come together. With over 1,200 exhibitors, 100,000 visitors from 120 countries, more than 100 conferences, a platform for innovations, special events for young professionals, an Espace for the Future to explore forward-thinking tools, job dating events and top buyers from around the world, SPACE 2024 promises to be a premier event for the agricultural sector.
Its unique location in the heart of Western France, the leading region for livestock farming, offers a distinct advantage. Brittany, Normandy and Pays de la Loire currently produce 75% of France’s pig herd, 60% of broiler poultry, 44% of beef and 53% of dairy output. This leadership position, achieved through the strength of the ecosystem, the favourable climate and the expertise of the farmers, makes this area a vital nexus for the future of animal farming in all its diversity.
One key theme at SPACE this year is attracting a new generation of farmers, essential to sustaining this key industry in France. In the next decade, one-third of farmers will reach retirement age. SPACE 2024 aims to provide farmers with a comprehensive range of ideas and solutions to improve succession planning, farm sales and acquisitions and enhance the overall attractiveness of agricultural careers, ensuring that livestock farmers can thrive.
Energy transition, food sovereignty and generational renewal will be the main themes at SPACE next week. Find out all about this year's event in the press kit below.
