The French Agrarian and Peasant Party (French: Parti agraire et paysan français, PAPF) was a French political party founded in 1927 during the French Third Republic. The PAPF was founded on a corporatist, right-wing populist and agrarian program. However, the PAPF divided into a left-wing and right-wing, with the party's "left" founding the Republican, Social and Agrarian Party led by the PAPF's sole deputy in 1932, Louis Guillon (Vosges). The right-wing, which remained known as the PAPF, was led by Pierre Mathé (Côte-d'Or).

Post-war, a small Peasant Party briefly existed before joining the National Centre of Independents and Peasants (CNI), which exists to this day (though much weaker than in the past).
