French term

"le battage, l'approvisionnement en intrants et la commercialisation"

French to English Social Sciences History
Socio-economic study of the Office du Niger zones. This section pertains to Village Associations and Tontines, and their vocations. Earlier in the paper, "battage" is also mentioned in the context of sugar cane production. I just can't get the word for it :( I'm also having trouble with "intrants". Thanks :))

French term (edited): battage

Hand-milling

To mill grain by beating it by hand. (also a hard sell in PR, but I don't think that applies here!) Good luck on "intrants"; as far as I know, that's not a French word.
Peer comment(s):

agree sarahl (X) : intrants definitely exists in French!
