The table here presented bespeaks most eloquently the fact that the food standards of the bulk of the village population which have joined the collective farms, the poor and middle peasantry, have advanced notably in comparison with the period when they were individual landholders, that their standards are al- ready approaching those of the petty capitalist entre- preneurs, which the mass of peasantry could not have attained, of course, if they had remained petty, in- dividual landholders. IX The most important role in large-scale socialist production has been played by the so-called “Sovkhoz,” or Soviet state farm. The development of these state farms has been marked by a gradual and general transi- tion from the most rational assimilation of the most advanced technical forms found abroad to the crea- tion of new models of production, such as are almost entirely unknown in the most advanced countries of today, or are met in isolated instances only. To illustrate this it is sufficient to consider the activity of one of the largest state bodies for the organization of state farms, the Grain Trust. The work of the Grain Trust began in 1928. It had organized 55 farms by 1929, 181 by 1930 and, accord- ing to estimates, will have organized 230 by 1931. The total area of arable land in the 181 farms of the Grain Trust amounts to 7,620,000 hectares. The farms are grouped according to size as follows: Per Cent of Total 11 34 50 3 Up to 25,000 hectares CONSEIHULE.....mmmiriiri From 25 £0 40,000... isi Brom 40 10 BO,000...ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmiomsmmm ono: From 80,000 to 100,000... sms: Over 100,000... scorns vor 24
