Industries of Russia

Infrastructure of Russian industry,which is also a branch of the economy, is divided into two groups: mining and processing. Each industrial group, in turn, is divided into various industries.

Mining and processing industry groups

What is the industry? The branch in industry is called separately the existing set of enterprises operating on the basis of the same technologies, producing homogeneous products and having a certain range of customers.

Thus, the extractive industry consists ofindustries for the extraction of metal ores, gas, shales, peat, oil, coal, etc. This also includes such industries as water supply, seafood extraction, forestry, hydroelectric power stations.

The recycling industry also hasconsisting of a number of branches. These are such industries as the production of chemicals, rolled metal, metallurgy, woodworking, pulp and paper, food, light, and film industry. And also thermal power stations, mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, automotive industry, military-industrial complex.

Russian industry

If we talk in general about the industry of Russia, thenit should be noted that its share in 2009 in the total domestic gross product was 37%. And the employment of the population in the industrial sphere in 2008 was within the range of 31.9%. These figures characterize a fairly high level of total production in the country.

The main attention of the Russian state onthe present moment gives to development of base industrial branches and increase of their competitiveness in the world market. The integrated development of the domestic economy has always relied on such industries of Russia as machine-tool production, power, heavy, oil and gas, transport engineering, and mining and metallurgy.

To support the increase in exports of productsRussian industrial sectors, the policy of equalizing competitive conditions for the export of domestic and imported goods to the Russian market is currently being implemented. And also conditions are created for the export promotion of Russian goods.

State measures to stimulate industrial growth

For this purpose, the state provides for the introductiona number of measures to regulate customs tariffs, including the adjustment of import duties for equipment and machinery, if similar types of these products are manufactured by Russian industry.

A variety of projects onlong-term state crediting of enterprises from budgetary funds, as well as profitable schemes of leasing acquisition of technological equipment, including the option of partial payment by the state of a leasing payment. This ensures the stimulation, therefore, of investments in the development of new industries, the modernization of technological processes and the creation of new technologies.

To stimulate the development of each industryindustry in the draft provides for discussion on the system of tax incentives, providing for the introduction of a number of tax incentives for industrial production.

Thus, in the light industry, as well as in the food industryindustry, due to the policy of state stimulation and the creation of favorable market conditions, in 2012 the growth rates of production growth were maximized. There has been a trend of a significant increase in orders for the export of consumer goods. And in investment goods there was a slight decrease in requirements. The situation created on the Russian market uniquely contributes to the stabilization of the domestic economy and the creation of a favorable opportunity for expanding and developing the domestic production infrastructure.
