Between 1900 and 1990, there were several periods of grain and
other food shortages in Russia and the former Soviet Union, some of
which reached disaster proportions resulting in mass famine and
death on an unprecedented scale. New stocks of information not
previously accessible as well as traditional official and other
sources have been used to explore the extent to which policy and
vagaries in climate conspired to affect agricultural yields. Were
the leaders' (Stalin, Krushchev, Brezhnev and Gorbachev) policies
sound in theory but failed in practice because of unpredictable
weather? How did the Soviet peasants react to these changes? What
impact did Soviet agriculture have on the overall economy of the
country? These are all questions that are taken into account.
