Stalin, who headed the party after the death of Lenin, introduced firm emergency
measures. He believed that rich peasants and traders in the countryside were holding stocks
in the hope of higher prices. Speculation had to be stopped and supplies confiscated.
In 1928, Party members toured the grain-producing areas, supervising enforced grain
collections, and raiding ‘kulaks’, the name for well to- do peasants. As shortages continued,
the decision was taken to collectivise farms. It was argued that grain shortages were partly
due to the small size of holdings. After 1917, land had been given over to peasants. These
small-sized peasant farms could not be modernised. To develop modern farms, and run
them along industrial lines with machinery, it was nece
ssary to ‘eliminate kulaks’, take away
land from peasants, and establish state-controlled large farms. From 1929, the Party forced all
peasants to cultivate in collective farms (kolkhoz).
