Explanation

China’s first Five-Year Plan (1953–1957) focused on developing the economy, especially by building heavy industry and infrastructure. Its main goal was to spur economic growth. Collectivization and land reform were also part of Mao-era policies, but they were not the plan’s central goal; the Cultural Revolution began much later.
