The dairy industry in France, with nearly 4,000 products in supermarkets, represents a market worth 27 billion euros per year. Despite the record profits of large companies, the reality is bleak for farmers: in 2016, 10,000 milk producers closed their doors, while many others are drowning in growing debt.
