Development of Commodity-Money Relations in the Countryside

Abstract

The collective and state farms maintain commodity relations with many socialist enterprises - state, cooperative and inter-collective farm - in their economic activity. In this process, an important role is also played by the relations of the agricultural enterprises with each other, with their personnel, and with the non-farming population. Each of the above groups of relationships has its specific character; their development in the various farms and their influence on the economies of the farms are uneven. The degree of development of the commodity-money relations within them also varies. The most developed at present, from the point of view of commodity-money relations, are the economic ties between the state and the collective farms. In recent years the commodity-money relations between collective farms and collective farmers have been improving rapidly.
