Like other French regions, Basse-Normandie has a rich agricultural industry, with production of dairy and apples, as well as the rearing of cattle being the main activities. Producing apples to make cider and apple-flavored liquor are very popular activities in the region. Production of cheese, butter and milk have suffered at the liquidation of many small farms and the stringent sanitation guidelines that forced quite a number of small traditional cheese factories into closure.
