The platform MonHangar.fr, launched in France in 2021, allows farmers to rent out unused barns for motorhome storage. Co-founder Joris Baco said a farmer can earn between €3,000 and €4,000 per year. Retired farmer Michel noted that renting brings him €200–300 per month, which is significant for his pension.
