The country is the largest agricultural producer in Western Europe and one of the world’s leading exporters of farm products. All the farms have electricity, and most have modern farm machinery with an average holding of 28 hectares. Nearly two-thirds of French farm income comes from meat and dairy animals. In dairy-farms most of the milk is used in making butter and cheese. The farmers have always raised some poultry and pigs, and have specialized in large-scale production of these animals. One-third of France’s land is crop growing. Wheat is the major single crop grown at large farms in the Paris Basin and in the north. In southern France, most of the grapes produced are used in making wine being of high quality that come from several regions. In the Mediterranean region, grapes are used for cheaper wines. Other important crops of the country are apple, potatoes, sugar beet, while livestock-feed crops are barley, maize, oats, and rape-seed, etc. The other important crops are beans, carrots, cauliflower, cherries, flowers, peas, peaches, pears, sunflower seeds, and tomatoes.

In addition to what has already been mentioned, Olives, and...of course, wheat. Not only cheese, but other dairy products as well. Some citrus, and lots of varieties of flowers for all the perfumes that they are so celebrated for.
