Why did Joseph Stalin confiscate grain?
Joseph Stalin confiscated grain in order to export as much grain as possible to get as much international trade credit as he possibly could. This income would then fuel his plan to industrialize Russia under his Five Year Plans. Grain was also confiscated grain from the peasants to feed his factory workers. In other cases grain was taken from the peasants in order to starve them into complying with his collective farmland system. He met no resistance in that other communists were to fearful of opposing Stalin. His control of the military prevented any generals from helping peasants as well.
