The same weather problems that hit the Ukraine in the early 1930s hit the US too
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl . The economic landscape of the US at the time was the Depression, whereas the USSR economy was chugging along, other than the poor harvest in the Ukraine that year. Walter Duranty of the New York Times visited Ukraine at the time, and said the harvest was not a good one but a lot of reports coming out of the Ukraine were overblown. |
