Notes
Collectivization - all peasants were to work on collective farms
Called Kolkhoz, all land was pooled together
Party officials monitored their output
By 1932 62% of all peasants collectivized
Kulaks wealthier peasants who owned their own farms
They were killed or sent to Gulags in Siberia
Seen as a threat to collectivization due to their free enterprise ideals

Summary
Apart of "Socialism in one country", collectivization was the process of turning private and small farms into 1 large farm.
Subjunctive question
Could the farms have produced more if they had their owners keeping them but with the party officials keeping track of them?
