The article considers the development of agriculture in Russia in the post-reform period in which the level of agricultural development largely determined the state of the economy as a whole. In the Russian village of the 60-90-s of the XIX century there was a process of decomposition of the peasantry (in the pre-reform period it was possible to speak confidently about social inequality among the peasants) or, as it was called by the peasants themselves - "raskrezhjanization". In the villages, the economic and social position of the emerging rural bourgeoisie - the kulaks, on the one hand, was strengthening, and the poorest layer - the rural proletariat, a significant part of which could no longer exist under the new conditions and left for the cities - was increasingly expanding.
Keywords: peasant, village, city, bourgeoisie, land, allotment.
