Question

what do you mean by collectivisation program of stalin?

Answer 1

Acute shortages of grain supplies and outdated mode of production on small land holdings led Stalin to introduce the system of collectivisation.

Under collectivisation, land was taken away from peasants, Kulaks eliminated and large state controlled farms established. Peasants were forced to cultivate on these collective farms (Kolkboz).

Large size of farms enabled introduction of modern techniques and machinery. Land and implements were transferred to the ownership of the collective farms. A profit of the farms was to be shared among the peasants.

Many peasants resisted collectivisation. Resistance was severely punished. Many peasants were deported or exiled.

Collectivisation however did not lead to increase in production immediately.

Here is your answer

Explanation:

Stalinís collectivisation programme.

• From 1929, the Party forced all peasants to cultivate in collective farms (kolkhoz).
• The bulk of land and implements were transferred to the ownership of collective farms. Peasants worked on the land, and the kolkhoz profit was shared.
• Enraged peasants resisted the authorities and destroyed their livestock. Between 1929 and 1931, the number of cattle fell by one-third.
• Those who resisted collectivisation were severely punished. Many were deported and exiled. As they resisted collectivisation, peasants argued that they were not rich and they were not against socialism.
• They merely did not want to work in collective farms for a variety of reasons. Stalinís government allowed some independent cultivation, but treated such cultivators unsympathetically.  In spite of collectivisation, production did not increase immediately
• In fact, the bad harvests of 1930-1933 led to one of most devastating famines in Soviet history when over 4 million died.
