| Clarification request(s) and responseAntonio Volpe Pasini: 06:06 Aug 6, 2006: boss could be ok, but may have a negative connotation. So could we please have more info on his "real" role? Ciao
Antonio

Collective farm is an agricultural production unit including a number of farm households or villages working together under state control.
I have used the search engine Google. The term "collective farm manager" gave 295 hits and the term "collective farm director" gave 219 hits. I am adding 2 examples of the usage of these terms:
1. "An official victory would enable Lukashenka, a former collective-farm manager who has ruled Belarus since 1994, to win a third term and remain in office..."
2. "These origins are in the town of Shklov and Shklov Region, where our hero worked as a collective farm director..."
