As the 2008 edition of the “Salon International de l’Agriculture” just closed its gates on 2nd March 2008 after nine days of great affluence, MSA had very positive feedbacks about the message it decided to promote this year on its stand: “for every age its prevention!”. Taking into account the risks associated with each age of life, MSA, as a public health actor, offers a comprehensive approach to the person, both in his professional and private environment. This is why activities were held each day on nutrition, diseases transmitted from animals to humans (, phytosanitarian products, teeth or first aid. The visitor, whatever its profile, left with a knowledge of "good practices" to adopt at work and at home to preserve his health capital. Moreover, as every year, elected officials and experts were present on MSA stand to answer visitors’ questions, particularly on issues relating to pensions or social security benefits
