Soviet famine of 1932-33? Poor leadership, demographic malice, or failing logistics can cause famine. Starvation is never intentional in any system (though, one would argue, government seizure of grain didn’t help)
I wonder if they were using more modern fertilizer then. Being able to synthetically produce ammonia happened in 1923.
