Answer 1

Answer:

Respected Stalin,

I am xxxxx and I am a farmer in morocco. I am a middle level Russian wheat farmer. I'm writing this letter to say something extremely important to you. The collectivization policy which has been implemented to transform the traditional agricultural practices has been a boon to some but a bane to many. Due to this prosperous peasants have been forced to give up their lands and join the large collective farms. The lands which we owned and looked after for years are now not under our control. In addition to this, we are also facing the problem of rapid industrialization. Collectivization is considered to be desirable and socialistic to some. But the actual scenario here is only known to us. As a result of collectivization, many leaders are forcing us to produce more crops using modern machinery and are selling our crops in low costs, we are feeling very reluctant to abandon our individual farms. Kindly understand our situation and do the needful.

stalin's response :

dear xxxxx,

I understand your plight and I will definitely help you all to get you out of this situation.
