	Prodnalog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rate of prodnalog was much smaller than that of prodrazvyorstka.

		During the first year of introduction of prodnalog, a significant amount of bread and other products remained at peasant households' disposal, which provided an incentive for peasants to develop their own household economy, widen the sowing areas, increase the total number of livestock and productivity of crops.

		This is to be explained primarily by the fact that the widespread development of a co-operative communal life in the countryside paved the way for a radical change in the attitude of the peasants in favour of collective farms, while the existence of a number of collective farms already harvest-
		ing from 150 to 200 poods per dessiatin, of which from 30 to 40 per cent represents a marketable surplus, is strongly attracting the poor peasants and the lower strata of the middle peasants towards the collective farms.
		The widespread movement at the beginning of this year for the formation of new collective farms and for the expansion of the old ones should considerably increase the grain output of the collective farms by the end of the year.

		The 3.5 pood is actually not a REAL 3.5 pood--it's 130lbs--but I didn't care.
		The extra volume on the lifts was fine with me. The 3 pood is odd shaped, it's 3/4 of a sphere, which makes it difficult to use.

		The Party's policy on collectivisation was successful in routing the kulaks as a class, in emancipating the labouring peasantry from kulak exploitation and bondage, and in providing the Soviet regime with a firm economic basis in the countryside, the basis of large-scale collective farming.

		The wheat is not yet cut and threshed, and there may be a big discrepancy between grain in the fields and grain harvested, for the Russian peasant is currently in the worst dither since the forcible collectivization of the land.
