Trudoden (Russian: Трудодень, portmanteau literally meaning labourday) was a unit of value and type of accounting of quantity and quality of labor (as a factor of production) in collective farms (kolkhozes) of the Soviet Union in 1930 – 1966. It literally means a day of labor. It also was a form of wage payments, as the in-kind compensation for labor equaled the amount of trudodens per given time period.[1]

Members of collective farms were paid based on the amount of trudodni (plural form) earned.[2][3][4] Payments to the collective farm members were made with natural products such as grain, often of a very poor quality, when and if they were able to realize their products.[1]
