collective farming

Collective farming is an agricultural system in which multiple farmers work together as a single unit, sharing land, tools, and resources to cultivate crops and raise livestock. This approach often involves pooling labor and profits, with the goal of increasing efficiency and productivity. Collective farms can be managed by the farmers themselves or overseen by a government entity. This system was notably implemented in various countries during the 20th century, such as in the Soviet Union, to promote socialist ideals and enhance agricultural output, though it often faced challenges related to motivation and management.
