Establishment
The Vichy regime's Peasant Corporation was dissolved after the Liberation of France in September 1944, but the unity of agricultural organisations that it had established persisted.[2]
The new Socialist Minister of Agriculture, François Tanguy-Prigent, replaced it with a national union of working farmers rather than landowners, the General Confederation of Agriculture (GCA).
In March 1946 the CGA became the Fédération nationale des syndicats d'exploitants agricoles (FNSEA).[3] Many of the former Peasant Corporation leaders became leaders of the FNSEA.[2]
