Demerits of stalin collectivisation programme |
| Answer» \tCollectivization was a policy under Joseph Stalin, and goal of this policy was to consolidate individual land and labour into collective farms\tFrom 1929, the Party forced all peasants to cultivate in collective farms (kolkhoz).\tThe bulk of land and implements were transferred to the ownership of collective farms\tPeasants worked on the land, and the kolkhoz profit was shared.\tIn 1928, Party members toured the grain-producing areas, supervising enforced grain collections, and raiding ‘kulaks’.\tLater rules, however, enforced collectivisation, prescribed punishments for \'enemies of the collective farms\' (such as the kulaks), stipulated that 90% of the produce had to go to the state (with 10% left to feed the collective), and set up Motor Tractor Stations to provide mechanisation. | |
