Before answering the question, we need to know what is subsistence crisis? So, subsistence crisis is a extreme situation where the basic means of livelihood are endangered.
Now the cause of subsistence crisis in France-The population of France increases from about
23 million in 1715 to 28 million in 1789. Due to increase in population, there is a rapid increase in the demand for food grains. Production of food grains also decreased. So the price of bread which was the diet of french people rose rapidly. And only the rich people could buy this not the peasants and workers. so the gap between rich and poor widened. Things became worse whenever drought or hail reduced the harvest. This led to subsistence crisis in France.

1. The population of France rose from about 23 million in 1715 to 28 million in 1789.

3.The price of bread which was the staple diet of the majority rose rapidly.
4.Most of the workers were employed as labourers in workshops whose owner fixed their wages.
5.But the wages did not keep pace with the rise in prices.So the gap between the poor and the rich widened.Things became worse whenever drought out hail reduced the harvest.
These all led to the subsistence crisis on France in the Lord regime.
