Explanation

The period from 1715 to 1789 in France saw significant population growth, which directly increased demand for food grains. More people require more food to sustain themselves. The other options (falling prices, rising living standards, or quality improvements) would not necessarily cause increased demand - population growth is the most direct and historically accurate explanation.
