In what month did the 1930 Soviet famine start?

1 answer

The 1930 Soviet famine, often referred to as the Holodomor when discussing its impacts primarily on Ukraine, is generally considered to have begun in the summer of 1932. However, the conditions leading to the famine began earlier, with significant crop failures and grain requisition policies starting in 1930. The famine intensified in late 1932 and continued into 1933, leading to a catastrophic impact on the population.
