Kulaks were the group of comparatively prosperous farmers in the later part of the Russian Empire, and the early Soviet Union. They were the peasants with large farms, several horses and cattle and the ability to employ hired labor.

In the pursuit of communism, the term "Kulak" was broadened in 1918 to include any peasant who opposed handing over their grains

They were viewed as class opponents of the poor peasants

Kulaks and their families were imprisoned and executed en masse, during the 1930s.

The Russian famine  of 1932-33 and food shortages every successive year, were attributed to the liquidation of the Kulak class

 This liquidation also contributed to Soviet Unions' financial failures in the Cold war.

kulkas is the Russian name for well to do peasants. In 1928 stalin took the decision to develop modern farms and run them along industrial lines. For this purpose it was necessary to eliminate kulkas. Land of kulkas was taken away and converted into large modern farms. HOPE IT HELPS YOU
