Saw a post about Simo Hayha and some people in the comments were talking about the Famine in the Soviet Union that happened not too long before. I was wondering how much of the famine was directly caused due to poor management or simply something mostly unavoidable. For instance was this like a Potato Famine issue where it was poorly managed Crops or was it something the Government did that caused the Famine and subsequent deaths
