Six hundred square meters for a summer house: why in the USSR everyone was given exactly this amount of land
Many people remember that during the Soviet era, only six hundred square meters of land were allocated for a summer house.
But few people know why exactly this size of summer cottages was determined.
Why were dachas in the USSR 6 acres
It was not just for nothing that this amount of land for dachas was given out in the Soviet Union.
Soviet mathematicians, economists and agronomists calculated that this type of summer cottage plot is capable of providing a standard family of 4-6 people with the necessary agricultural products.
Six hundred square meters was quite enough to accommodate beds and plant a small number of fruit trees and berry bushes.
Also, on a plot of six hundred square meters there was enough space for a small building for storing agricultural equipment.
