"The increased population numbers between 1715 and 1789 demanded an increase in subsistence. Whether it was food grains or bread, the production could not keep up with the growing population. Wages for workers did not increase which meant the rich could afford subsistence but, the poor were left with nothing..."

The reasons for subsistence crisis in French are:

1) Increase in France's population

2) Not more production of food

3) Increased cost of food

And it was in a great demand.

Hope this helps you
