'You have more prejudices about us than you have about us': A parade of politicians of all stripes at the Young Farmers congress

Political figures from across the spectrum gathered at the Young Farmers congress, each presenting their agricultural visions to the organization's members. The event featured five presidential candidates or party representatives, though the format largely restricted debate, focusing instead on presentations of their respective platforms.

During the sessions, Marine Tondelier and Aurélie Trouvé championed environmental protection measures within the agricultural sector. In contrast, representatives from the right-wing political factions used the platform to criticize existing regulations and norms they believe hinder farmers.

The congress aimed to provide a space for dialogue between aspiring political leaders and the agricultural community. However, the structure of the event, as described, prioritized candidate statements over interactive discussion, leaving attendees with limited opportunities to engage directly with the politicians on pressing agricultural issues.
