ABSTRACT
Also, a definition of the term ‘new development’ is required in order to avoid its being used too loosely. Concerning production in general, it is easy to enumerate quite a number of new developments. Without doubt,
crop production-especially of grain, potatoes and fodder-was greatly improved and enlarged in comparison with the very minor role this branch played before collectivization. In addition, the increased pork and chicken production has to be mentioned, which in earlier times was a domain of the Russian and Chinese settlers in the country, whereas Mongolians avoided these animals. Among other new developments is the expansion of irrigation.
