context_page_description: The Revolt of the Languedoc winegrowers was a mass movement in 1907 in Languedoc and the Pyrénées-Orientales of France that was repressed by the government of Georges Clemenceau.
  It was caused by a serious crisis in winemaking at the start of the 20th century.
  The movement was also called the "paupers revolt" of the Midi.
  It was marked by the fraternization of the 17th line infantry regiment with the demonstrators in Béziers.
context_section_description: A solution to the endemic causes of the viticultural crisis was long delayed. 
  From the 1920s to the 1970s Languedoc continued to experience successive crises of overproduction and slump. 
  It was assumed that the crises were inevitable due to the vine monoculture. 
  It was not resolved until the 1960s, when agricultural change was made possible by the Canal du Bas-Rhône Languedoc, an irrigation canal that brings water from the Rhone to the south of the department of Gard and the east of the department of Héraultin.
  This work was spearheaded by Philippe Lamour, "father" of the policy of regional planning in France and in 1955 president of the National Planning Company of the Bas-Rhône and Languedoc region. 
  In southern Gard and the east of Hérault water was distributed by the BRL Group.
  It was supplied by the National Development Company of the Lower Rhône and Languedoc.
