Detailed explanation-1: -From 1954 onward peasants were encouraged to form and join collective-farming associations, which would supposedly increase their efficiency without robbing them of their own land or restricting their livelihoods. By 1958 private ownership was abolished and all households were forced into state-operated communes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rural collectivisation forced peasants to live in huge communes of up to 300 households. Private property was seized by the state and people were forced to eat in communal dining halls.
Detailed explanation-3: -Communes (The Great Leap Forward) Private plots of land and private markets were eliminated. The labor force was reorganized into work crews for large projects-e.g. water conservation (irrigation) or local industry. Accumulated funds at the commune level were used to support education, health care, etc.
