By DICK HANSON

Editor, Successful Farming MAGAZINE
Written for the Associated Press
Mechanization on Soviet state
and collective farms is still far
behind the stage we consider
necessary in the United States.
Much hand work is required
on a Soviet farm, work that
would almost always be done by
machine in this country. Like
consumer goods, farm machin-
cry is scarce in the Soviet
Union.
Some of the farm machinery
] saw during my recent trip to
Russia was fairly we'll built, but
much larger than necessary for
the job it was intended to do.
For example, a crawler-type
tractor would be used to pull a
three or four bottom plow when
1t could Just as well have been
pulling a six.
] Visited a tractor factory and
q combine factory. In both,
working conditions were ex-
tremely poor. There were few
If any safety devices. The light
ing was poor, and many of the
machine tools obsolete. Many
OF the foundry machines being
used in the Soviet Union today
were made in the United States.
On the farms, mechanization
appears to be about half COM
,plete. Here is a fairly typical
rundown of the machinery
available on a 15,750-acre COL
lective farm, where 1850.
families-7,4 400 people-lived:
Field Work BY Hand
Mechanization included "a
tractors. Sc trucks and two
cars. To help with the field |
work, $50 horses and IS oxen
were also being ueSd. Plows,
discs and planters completed
the mechanization.
A great deal of the field work |
Is still being done by hand by |
both men and women. Har-
vesting of potatoes was in full
swing during my visit and
much of this was done with |
an ordinary hand fork. Much |
OF the sugar beet harvesting is
also done by hand.
There is a tremendous con-
trast between the machinery
on display at the Moscow and
Kiev agricultural exhibits and
what you actually see on a
farm in many instances. The |
machinery on display is brightly |
painted, otter very similar to
United States machines but
usually much larger. A COM
plete line of farm machinery
Is shown.
Glimpse Of the Future
On the farms, much of this
equipment is not in evidence.
1t appeared TO me that the |
machinery on exhibition was
there for two reasons. First, to
show foreign visitors Soviet |
mechanization. And second, to |
show the Soviet citizens what |
will be available in the future. |
] am sure the average Amer

lean tourist visiting only these
exhibits, and not getting out
on farms, would be impressed
with the variety of machinery
available. Out on the farms,
however, it is another story.
Mechanization of farmStead
chores is barely beginning on
the farms I visited. I did see
some milking machines, but I
also saw q great many women
milking by hand. I saw dairy
barn gutter cleaners, but I also
saw the manure dumped from
a gutter cleaner onto a fiat
bed wagon. From there it is
hauled to the fields and pitched
of the wagon by hand. I never
saw a refrigeration unit being
used for milk cooling.
Pelleting Machine
Feding of livestock is almost
always done by hand. There
apparently are no augers, ele-
vators or blowers used to
tighten the feeding chore. The
one impressive mechanical
feed mill I saw was a complete
pelleting operation. 1t COM
pared favorably with similar
installations In this country.
The shortage Of farm ma
chinery is probably another
result of Soviet concentration
on other fields: Heavy indus
try, large hydroelectric dams,
missile plants, and so forth are
considered more important at
present. Therefore, increased
manufacture of farm machinery
will have to wait until some
future date.
Although it appeared to me
that mechanization on Soviet
farms was far behind that in
the United States, there is
apparently much more of it
than just a few years ago. And
it will be interesting to watch
Soviet progress in the next few
years. The abolition of the
tractor stations in
1858 is having a profound
effect on Soviet farm mechan-
ization. Now, the farms them
selves own the machinery and
are responsible for its use and
repair.
AS in so many other areas
the Russians could, I am sure,
make tremendous strides in
mechanization should they
suddenly decide to concentrate
on this area. Whether they
would or could take such a step
is another question.
