1793
In Paris.
It was primarily the women from the Paris marketplaces.
The women were demanding not only bread, but the presence of the King in Paris so that he could personally see their plight.
The peasants wanted bread and hoped for a better tomorrow.
The agricultural revolution has nothing to do with the french revolution . the agricultural revolution is about the problems in the countryside with food to grow thing and all the rich people had no need to grow food and the french revolution is the economic revolution

Bread
The proletariat often rioted for bread during the French Revolution. Under the Ancient Regime, there was terrible inflation and horrible harvests, and they starved. An example of an urban riot in Paris was the march to Versailles, when thousands of women marched to Versailles to force the king, Louis XVI, to return to Paris. From Versailles, the women got cartloads of flour to feed their families as well.

In a way yes. A lot of commoners and even rich aristocrats in Paris supported the French Revolution. During the Reign of Terror which was in 1794 many Parisian people worried about facing arrest and being executed. There were secret police who would spy on you if you complained about the price of bread, talked about the monarchy or used the word "Madame" or "Monsieur". You would be arrested and facing execution by the guillotene without trial.
Hey, I am doing an assessment on the French Revolution as we speak and as I remember they actually ate near to nothing. As Louis' wife said when royals said 'the commons have no bread' she said 'let them have cake.' Sorry but I know that wasn't alot of help.
A responsive government, bread and hope.
They would eat French bread and French cheese.
The March of Versailles was a significant event during the French Revolution when thousands of working-class women marched to Versailles to demand bread and protest against the monarchy. The march highlighted the growing discontent among the French populace over economic hardship and inequality, leading to the royal family being forced to move from Versailles to Paris. It symbolized the power of popular uprising and helped pave the way for future revolutionary actions during the French Revolution.
The economy was really poor during the French Revolution, one of the reasons that it occurred. For example, the prices of bread were rising at alarming costs, and the people began to starve. Bread and grain were a major factor for the lives of the French at the time. The French were heavily in debt due to helping out the Americans in the American Revolution, the French-Indian War, as well as the expenditures the monarchy racked up, such as Marie Antoinette's wardrobe. Overall, the economy was TERRIBLE. There's more information here if you need it!: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_the_French_Revolution#Economics_And_Finances
It was the price fixing regulations on grain and bread.
