1. Collectivization in the 'Pernopo23. area was accomplishod largely in
1948-1949, when partisan activity In the area, was finally ended by a
coaacertecl gover3' nt drive. A typical kelt; ho:; in the Ternopol area
centers aavotand a village and has about 3 OW hectares of land. .'.mill rs
have their own houses and private garden plots, for which they pay
an annual' rent of 125 rubles. Most families live in the village.
During the Stalin era, there was a drive to move Into the village hose
families living outside In the fields, but a fan families managed to
maintain their outlying he es. After S to lin as death the drive was
stopped. The present policy is that families living outside the
village may stay as long as thc;y live, but children ayy, gnot a? ve into
their parents' houses when the parents die, an,d new families must
settle in the village. The chairman of the village soviet has on
occasion xefusbd pe iazion to a villager to move his family into an
outlying house formerly occupied by his paarentss.
2. ` The ' advanta e4 of living outside the village are primarily more freedom
of action and a larger garden plot. Village families normally receive
25 aarezl of private land, although a few who live on the vil_l ag," out-
skirts near the fields may receive 40 as es ; outside dwellers receive
40 area. Since there are no close neighbors, a resident outside the
village has Mare privacy for illegal act vities, such as stealing from
the collective aand making moonshine liquor, and is far less likely to
be reported, by an observer.
3. The main crop in the kolkhozes is sugar beets, to which about 32`5
hectares a year is aallooatedo The next mist important crop is wheat.
Several kin d..4 are grown: one. for ' eed, -rot aer? for dark bread,
another for light bread, and winter. r:ieaat, sown in the latter part of
October. Wheat is harvested by combines, and village residents as
well as iember? of the kelkhoz assist, on a. day work basis. Alldmu
