The correct answer is B. Farmers who resisted collective farming were sent to forced labor camps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Joseph Stalin was an important political leader in the Soviet Union; he was mainly known due to his role in the Communist party and his role as the head of the government in this country. During this time in power, Stalin promoted socialist ideas inspired by Lenin, Marx, and own policies.

This included the idea means of production including farms should exist for the benefit of all society; this idea was promoted through "collectivization" in which collective farms were created and those who resisted were arrested or sent to labor/prison camps, which showed the power and authority of Stalin. Ths, a tactic Stalin used to intimidate opponents was "farmers who resisted collective farming were sent to forced labor camps."
