Soviet Farm Output Compared With Iowa Efficiency
A Soviet delegation led by Vladimir Matskevich cites Kuban and Gigant state farms to show vast differences in scale and labor use versus American practice.

Delegation notes mechanized services and female labor in Russia contrast with lower per worker output, highlighting why Russia's standard of living lags behind the U.S.
