Jacques Jules Marie Joseph Le Roy Ladurie (French pronunciation: [ʒak ʒyl maʁi ʒozɛf ʁwa ladyʁi]; 28 March 1902 – 6 June 1988) was a French agriculturalist and politician. He played a leading role in agricultural syndicates in the 1920s and 1930s. During World War II (1939–1945) he was Minister of Agriculture in Vichy France for several months in 1942. He later participated in the French Resistance. After the war he was a deputy for the Calvados from 1951 to 1955, and again from 1958 to 1962.
