This scholarly study examines how French agriculture and food supply were organized and managed during the Second World War. Drawing on official records, statistical data, and contemporary accounts, the author traces the impact of German occupation, wartime requisitions, and state‑directed policies on farmers, producers, and consumers. The analysis covers the restructuring of agricultural production, the role of rationing and distribution networks, and the social consequences of shortages and price controls. By situating these economic measures within the broader context of wartime France, the work offers insight into the resilience and adaptation of the rural sector under extreme conditions. It serves as a valuable resource for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the interplay between agriculture, policy, and society during a period of profound upheaval.
