Abstract
The article analyzes the problem of replenishment of qualified personnel in the context of mobilization to the front. The main attention is paid to ways to replenish professional staff: collective farm management; machine operators, including female tractor drivers and combine harvesters; specialists in field breeding and animal husbandry, as well as assistance to the agriculture of the region in harvesting and repairing equipment from the cities and soldiers of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. The conducted research, based on scientific literature, periodicals and unpublished archival materials, allows establishing the solution of the problem of replenishing professional staff at the level of the entire region by the Regional Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of the Bolsheviks, and more widely by the Agricultural Frame sector and the Regional Land Department, mainly through various professional courses.
