At the recent Salon de l'agriculture, held at the end of February, 34-year-old Johann Favre was crowned France's Best Craftsman. This came at the end of a five-hour competition, in which he had to set up a display of early fruit and vegetables creatively representing a vision of the profession in 2050. All in front of a live audience. Out of fourteen candidates, five finally got to wear the coveted tricolour collar.
