Contradictory processes in the reform of agriculture in the Surkhandarya oasis in the 20-30s of the XX century

Abstract

AbstractThe documents stored in the National Archives of Uzbekistan, Surkhandarya region, and district state archives were analyzed and compared with scientific literature in the study of the agricultural history of the Surkhandarya oasis, which was the southern border of Uzbekistan in the 20-30s of the twentieth century. The Soviet Union also established a movement known as the "25 thousand" during this time. This was mostly owing to the intention of the "Stalinist" regime to hasten mass collectivization in the villages. The increase of cotton fields and, as a result, the diminution of grain crop lands was one of the negative effects of the agricultural reforms carried out at this time.
