Thousands of visitors attended the 32nd annual Space exhibition in Rennes, France, to discover the latest in innovation from the world’s agricultural sector in 11 specially constructed halls. The exhibition took place between September 11 – 14 and attracted more than 50 foreign journalists as well as plenty from France.
The event is organised by Anne Marie Quemener who has a long association with Space. Anne Marie succeeded Paul Kerdraon on January 1, 2016 as exhibition manager of Space. Marie says, “we can all be proud of this 32nd edition of Space. Despite a highly competitive context, the whole world is here in Rennes to be inspired by the Breton farming model recognised for its performance and quality.
“A great result. I once again express my thanks to the exhibitors who contribute so much to our success by the enormous quality of their stands and their willingness to make Space a major event. The numerous innovations presented allow visitors to get a foretaste of tomorrow's solutions.
“This energy and drive have been reinforced over the four days of the show by its collective nature, the strongest possible demonstration that the different links in the chain of producers, associations, food industry and distributors must work hand in hand to build an ever more competitive agriculture.”
“This year we have highlighted innovations in working conditions in our 'Espace for tomorrow'’”
‘Espace for Tomorrow’ on Wednesday September 12 highlighted some of the farm-led innovations including a range of new inventions which will help farmers better look after their livestock.
A robot joined the demonstration to give the exhibition a truly modern feel. A new device which highlighted where a farmer’s body is put under strain while working. By wearing a specially designed piece of kit, a computerised map of the body is displayed on a screen showing where the pressure points are. It can help farm workers to a better posture when bending down to pick up animals.
“This choice is in tune with our sector where the well-being of farmers is primordial. The drawing power of the profession finds itself at the heart of our actions also. The satisfactory attendance levels at Space again this year seems to bear this out,” continued Ms Marie.
“This platform allows me to thank and pay tribute to the whole Space team for their commitment after working all year to bring about this marvellous showcase of our dynamic and progressive stock raising sector.”
