By late 1929 Stalin started a program known as " dekulakization ".
Even these revisions ultimately failed to resolve the problem, and the dekulakization process was a failure in providing the government with a steady forced labor force.
The Unified State Political Administration (OGPU) quickly realized the problem, and began to reform the dekulakization process.
This was only the beginning of the dekulakization process.
