What is the system in which private farms were eliminated and the government owned the land?

The system in which private farms were eliminated and the government owned the land is known as collectivization. This approach was primarily implemented in the Soviet Union during the late 1920s and 1930s under Joseph Stalin, aiming to consolidate individual landholdings into collectively owned farms. The goal was to increase agricultural productivity and support industrialization, but it often resulted in widespread famine and suffering. Collectivization was part of a broader strategy of state control over the economy and society.
