The document analyzes a source from the 1930s portraying collectivization in Russia as a success due to abundant harvests and increased mechanization. However, it argues that the source is unreliable as total grain production actually decreased, with millions of peasants starving during that period. The author used propaganda to persuade peasants to accept collectivization, despite the dire reality.
