To Kaganovich. Molotov.

For winter sowing, the state farms can be left with a one-million-hectare increase, although this figure is strained. As for the collective farm sector, I consider it wrong to maintain last year's acreage; the collective farms must definitely increase their winter grain acreage by a minimum of 500 thousand hectares.
