The article is investigated the scale and direction of peasant colonization in Kazakhstan, that considered by the authors as the main direction of Stolypin’s agrarian policy in the Kazakh region. According to sources, the more organized nature and previously unprecedented scale of peasant colonization of the region at the time under consideration is explained by powerful state support, actively initiated by P.A. Stolypin himself and personally controlled by him at the government level. Even the premature death of P.A. Stolypin, which occurred in 1911, essentially did not prevent the implementation of his plans for the “peasantization” of the ancestral territories of Kazakh cattle breeders until the October events of 1917. Its true, the pace and geography of this process in the post-Stolypin era decreased slightly. Nevertheless, the goal set by the imperial authorities of the mass settlement of peasant families from various regions of the empire on the territory of the Steppe land was practically achieved. The total area of land confiscated from the Kazakhs by 1917 amounted to more than 45 million dessiatines. The authors consider this period of time as the final stage of land colonization of the region.
