Crisis in Soviet Agriculture

By Stefan Hedlund

Book Overview

This book, first published in 1984, analyses the institutions and decision-making processes that determined agricultural production in the Soviet Union. It addresses the crisis in Soviet agriculture of the early 1980s, examining the problems of low productivity, adverse natural conditions and an underdeveloped infrastructure. The book's analysis of the 'crisis' focuses on the growing gap between demand and supply of agricultural produce, and the pressures on the government to alleviate the food shortages.
