The first one is called the "Golden Wheat", established in 1967 and awarded by the Central Committee of Komsomol to civilians as well as the military working in kolhozes. I don't have any information about the other one.

Here's an interesting lot:

There seems to have been a huge number of these awards. I've recently purchased the green nature one. I was wondering if there is a reference guide to Komosomol awards, in Russian or English?
collector friends of mine showed me both a book containing all awards and a postcard set. The book is of course more complete. Both were of soviet times, so with a propaganda purpose. Very nice quality.
