Summary: Polish emigration in France in the years 1918­‑1939 constituted a large group of people, over half a million. Poles sought employment primarily in mining, industry and agriculture. In contrast to the industrial sector, the economic crisis that affected France in the years 1929­‑1933 did not reverse the prevailing trend in the field of agriculture. The foreign workforce, especially Polish, maintained its numbers and even grew. A large wave of people working in the fields required a response from the authorities of the Republic of Poland and the creation of conditions for settling and taking up work in agriculture. The depopulation of the French countryside was one of the arguments encouraging people to take up work in the fields. Rural areas were extremely capacious for the arriving settlers. The implementation of the settlement plan for Poles in France was a broad undertaking, under the patronage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the most involved consular post was the one in Toulouse. Various forms of support were proposed: financial, organizational, specialist, through the activities of the Settlers’ Association. Polish agricultural settlement in France was an interesting experiment and precedent. Here, citizens of a poor country were able to buy land in a wealthy country. Unfortunately, the settlement plan did not bring the expected results.
