Granary of France
The "Granary of France" refers to the Paris Basin, a large fertile area in northern France known for its rich soil and favorable climate. Historically, it has been a major agricultural region, producing abundant crops like wheat, barley, and oats, which contributed significantly to France's food supply and economy. Its fertile lands made it a key "granary," or breadbasket, providing essential resources during both peaceful times and wartime, ensuring food security for the country.
