The history of collective peasant farmers in 1945–1953: realities and problems

The study of the problems of collective peasant farmers in the post-war decade in modern national historiography has become one of the relevant aspects. Agriculture was the main source of replenishment of material and human sources. Thus agriculture occupied a special place in the Soviet economy, but the state did not pay due attention at all. The authorities showed “concern” about improving rural life, but in reality, they drove the village (aul) under the pressure of various high taxes and fees. Unfortunately, the agrarian policy of the postwar period was far from reality and had an exclusively political orientation. The rural population was actively involved by the party and political leadership of the country in the implementation of essentially unprepared large-scale economic measures. As a result, it faced a lot of problems that are covered in this article.
