These were the two components of the socialized farm sector that began to emerge in Agriculture in the Soviet Union, Soviet agriculture after the October Revolution of 1917, as an antithesis both to the feudalism, feudal structure of impoverished serfdom and aristocracy, aristocratic landlords and to individual or family farming. Initially, a collective farm resembled an updated version of the traditional Russian obshchina "commune", the generic "farming association" (''zemledel’cheskaya artel’''), the Association for Joint Cultivation of Land (TOZ), and finally the kolkhoz.

Center Of Population
In Demography, demographics, the center of population (or population center) of a region is a geographical point that describes a centerpoint of the region's population. There are several ways of defining such a "center point", leading to different geographical locations; these are often confused. Definitions Three commonly used (but different) center points are: # the ''mean center'', also known as the ''centroid'' or ''center of gravity''; # the ''median center'', which is the intersection of the median longitude and median latitude; # the ''geometric median'', also known as ''Weber point'', ''Fermat–Weber point'', or ''point of minimum aggregate travel''. A further complication is caused by the curved shape of the Earth. Different center points are obtained depending on whether the center is computed in three-dimensional space, or restricted to the curved surface, or computed using a flat map projection. Mean center The mean center, or centroid, is the point on which a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
