slowdown in crop production.
O Many people were forced out of jobs when farms turned to collectivization.

Explanation:

By 1936, the government had collected nearly all of the peasants. However, millions of individuals who had provided opposition had been deported to jail camps and removed from agricultural productive activities. This resulted in a devastating famine in the countryside (1932–33), k!illing millions of peasants. The peasants was deeply scarred by collectivization. The forceful expropriation of meat and bread resulted in peasant mutinies. They would even rather butcher their animals than give them to the community farms. To put down uprisings, the Soviet leadership had to call in the army on occasion. Russia briefly led a confederation of independent states and maintained some control of the region. Gorbachev's decision to allow multi-party elections and establish a president for the Soviet Union began a lengthy process of democratization that finally destabilized Communist authority and led to the Soviet Union's demise. Stalin and the CPSU accused the affluent peasants, dubbed "kulaks" (Russian for "fist"), for organizing anti-collectivization resistance. Many kulaks allegedly hoarded grain in order to speculate on higher prices, hindering grain collection. People labeled as kulaks were subjected to expulsion and extrajudicial penalties during the height of collectivization in the early 1930s. They were regularly assassinated in local campaigns of violence, while others were legally killed after being found guilty of being kulaks.Stalin creates modern farms by instituting new reforms, including the Kolkhoz The collectivization of agriculture (Kolkhoz) forbids private farming and replaces it with state-owned agriculture.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.

answer - matches required natural chemicals
