The average value of the goods which were confiscated from the kulaks during the policy of dekulakization (раскулачивание) at the beginning of the 1930s was only 170–400 rubles (US$90–210) per household.
Assuming that’s not adjusted for inflation, that would be about ~4000$ today (using the high estimate of 210$). And 4000$ of farm equipment is a paltry amount.

Sounds like kulac apologist propaganda to me /s
In 1986 $200 USD is ~$590 in 2025 USD.
