TL;DR: In this paper, a partir de 1970, l'alliance solide entre les representants des eleveurs modernes and le neo-gaullisme de Georges Pompidou et de Jacques Chirac structure ce champs socio-politique.

TL;DR: In this paper, les auteurs analyse la politique agricole francaise depuis les annees soixante et son articulation avec la "politique agricoles commune" {PAC) for les cereales and l'elevage.

TL;DR: Since 1970 the government brings differrenciated pressure to bear on production prices but this policy goes with the emergence of France as a big world food exporter as discussed by the authors, but since 1974 the instability of external trade and the sensible drop in agricultural income has led, 20 years after the i960's laws, to a new agricultural policy.

TL;DR: The main aim of French agricultural policy is to prevent the market instability that is inherent in the competitive character of a sector made up of many different producers as discussed by the authors, and therefore it is necessary and sufficient to withdraw excess production from the market by either destroying or stockpiling any surpluses or, a better solution since it can also be profitable, by exporting them in order to reestablish the normal price level.
