There was a forest, people were afraid of it, they believed that evil spirits lived there in order to protect themselves from evil spirits, a horse shoe was nailed over the door frame, and a knife or sickle was very often stuck into the door frame. Watch the travel show like at home on our tv channel. Good evening, on the air economic environment on belarus1 and satellite tv channel belarus 24. We traded for 23 million dollars, the balance of Foreign Trade of belarus for the first 2 months of the twentyfourth year was positive, the National Bank reports. According to the regulator, Foreign Trade turnover increased by 1. 3 compared to the same period last year. Belgospischeprom based on the results increased in the First Quarter. Analysts cite rising gasoline prices, higher rents and Car Insurance as the reasons for the growth. Already, the level of Consumer Prices is far from the forecast 2 for the year. Gold and Foreign Exchange reserves have increased again in belarus. According to the National Bank , International Reserve assets increased by 134 million in march. As of april 1, they exceeded 8. 3 billion. The key reason is the increase in gold prices by more than 8 in march. Belarus gold and Foreign Exchange reserves are growing for the second month in a row. Industrial release production increased by almost 40 over 3 years. Last year it was produced for almost 30 billion rubles. Thats just about 113 . These figures were announced at a large meeting on industry with the president. But there are also problems. Decrease in production at a number of industrial giants, stocks in warehouses, search for new markets. The head of state has set serious tasks. What will you have to work on . Work for the industrial sector in the near future, how to reduce inventories, replace imported components, increase exports and ensure accelerated modernization of production. We will discuss the task of Industrial Development with competent experts right now. Today in our studio we have experts who are well versed in issues of Industrial Development, alexander ogorodnikov, first deputy minister of industry, andrey kartun, first deputy minister of economy, our president emphasized this, he called ensuring the quality of products and Proper Service a key issue for enterprises, and facts when new equipment fails even before use, unacceptable, lets listen to our president , here is the quality, yes always, the products produced must be at the highest level, and nothing else, this is not a whim, but a severe vital necessity, a question of the future of the country of the people, ours. At the minimum price we will lose not only quality final products, but also the production of our own component base. Well, we heard, in fact, yes, from an economic point of view, the head of state aims our manufacturers to ensure competitiveness in terms of quality, that is, not in price, precisely in terms of quality, this is a wellknown Pricing Strategy that many successful manufacturers implement in practice. Please tell me at the top level, he creates a system that allows you to prevent the release of lowquality products or determines the level of quality of products manufactured at a particular enterprise, here you need to consider this process as continuous, starting from design, already at the design stage you need to use a Risk Management tool and. Anticipate or provide for the likelihood of failures due to some design flaws at the stage of introducing prototypes. Year, but only produce little, as our president emphasized at the meeting, the main question is to sell the products and get money. Alexander sergeevich, well , we know that at the end of the year the industry as a whole worked well, but nevertheless there are declines in certain Economic Indicators at a number of Large Industrial enterprises, they were voiced at the meeting, in particular, i will quote that with. The growth of warehouse stocks is fixed, this is 23 in total year, please tell me what are the reasons, is it insufficient demand for products, and either it is problems in the operation of networks, thats what you think, how to unload the warehouses of our Industrial Enterprises . First, you probably correctly noted that industry was, is, will be our driver of the economy, because it pulls with it a lot of industries that work for industry. Who consume the results of our industry, we have been growing for the last three years, and we must understand that we are working for the world market, because the system the ministry of industry sells more than 70 of the produced volume to the port, yeah, to the external circuit, accordingly, we are subject to all cyclical changes, all open processes in foreign markets, and accordingly the level of management, which can be assessed by itself. The main thing is to predict and predict with a certain accuracy processes that will take place in the future, this is where this, lets call it, the root of our success lies. Why am i talking about this . Because products in stock are the end of the production cycle, and in general, the production cycle itself, it includes not only the production of products, it includes the production cycle of cash flows that go to suppliers who must produce their products. And if, for example, we take Different Enterprises, then Different Enterprises have different production cycles, for example, microelectronics, which today determines a lot in many industries, then the production of individual microcircuits according to the technological cycle requires a ninemonth production cycle, respectively, if the supplier says to give ninemonth period for production, then this scheme should be in the warehouse, on the other hand, we have seen a lot, for example, the Assembly Line we understand and the financial feasibility of, lets say, competitors of suppliers the peoples republic of china, the republic of turkey, who entered the market with a similar product with the possibility of providing financial mechanisms for installment sales of these goods, well, in a certain way they also affected our manufacturer; in principle, we did not lose our share last year, because the overall market for refrigerators and freezers has decreased, but we have lost in production volumes and in order to maintain a certain economic level there. Minimum level, so as not to fall into the negative line, we have something in our warehouse, but we remember the situation three years ago when covid times began and our atlant , thanks to the warehouse, worked it out to zero, when they were buying up what else was not produced, indeed warehouses can also grow due to the fact that we change the marketing strategy, and this is normal its also a situation where we talk about the need to develop our own Distribution Networks and open more stores then. Some kind of hubs for our equipment so that this equipment reaches the consumer faster, so to speak, today i took the advance payment, tomorrow i received a tractor, this is an ideal design, this of course means that we need to increase warehouses, and where is this figure, opinion the experts were divided here depending on production, thats what i said. There about microcircuits and so on, but even, for example, in light industry, even 200 , those who have a developed Distribution Network this is a normal level, its even small, so here, uh, by the way, about warehouses, we already have the results of the First Quarter and we actually have warehouses, even despite the fact is that our prices have increased, producers by more than 6 , in general, but our warehouses have already decreased from the average monthly production volume. We know that in the far arc, in foreign countries, the situation with exports is worse than in traditional markets, although in general, it should be noted, it is moderately positive, please tell me, this is what you think, thanks to which domestic producers can occupy additional niches in the markets of africa, asia, latin america, these are the economic mechanisms necessary for expansion. Exports to stimulate exports, we, of course , relied on the african market, the market of latin america, where we practically do not exist, well, the result is not very good, and the markets are huge, if the same african market, conditionally, even if the reference points are taken there four or five countries, conditionally egypt, nigeria, equatorial guinea, an african republic, in fact, the market volume is more than 100 billion dollars a year, this market is growing 10. Well, of course, we have already prepared the appropriate tools, they are constantly being modernized, we are talking about Financial Instruments to support exports, the so called preexport financing, and now it is not Financial Instruments that are actively developing, but the socalled compensation trade, which is essentially barter transactions on crossborder markets, conditionally, african counterparties often tell us that, well, due to currency legislation, we cannot strictly for. Our enterprise eliminated the risks of finding counterparties there, so that there would be no nonpayments there, and so on, so this is of course a complex issue, we are all Government Agencies involved in this work. Last year, the export geography of the ministry of industrys enterprises included 65 countries; sanctions taught our industrialists not to focus on certain markets, but to work with those. Who open to mutually beneficial cooperation, what are belarusian exports and what difficulties do our manufacturers face . In the context section , elona volynets discusses. Please. Last year , belarusians produced Industrial Products worth approximately 30 billion rubles. We increased the production of electronics, combines, cars and trucks. Against the background of forced withdrawal from western markets, enterprises of the ministry of industry continue to increase exports. Dollars, and this is a record for the last 10 years. Supplies have been reoriented to the markets of friendly countries, primarily russia and the cis countries. Last year, the volume of Industrial Supplies to the Russian Federation amounted to about 6 billion. The export piggy bank has become heavier in many ways thanks to belg, bmz, mtz, bilaz, maz, horizon. They are already called the big six. Key goal for everyone. Manufacturers should think more globally and expand their export geography. Last year, plus six new markets argentina, turkmenistan, kenya, colombia, kuwait and japan. By the way, our agricultural machines were there, tractors, pumps. Huge demand for Industrial Products in africa, asia, latin america. Thats why its important to have time to occupy your niches there . For example, Food Security is a matter of life and death for african states. There is a great need for Agricultural Machinery and equipment, and we have something to offer. There are already agreements on the supply of over 3. 00 tractors, 80 combines and thirty dump trucks to zimbabwe, and more than 150 tractors to the togolest republic. Equatorial guinea is eyeing the belarusians. The seriousness of intentions is eloquent says exchange of visits at the highest level. In the contractual process, slippage is unacceptable. Competitors are on their heels. In general, for export. The roads are not without problems, there are not always stable payments for the delivered products, that is, they want belarusian goods, but not everyone can buy them right away, here the manufacturers themselves need to avoid accounts receivable, this is the turnover of funds and investments, lets be honest, there are difficulties with unloading warehouses, inventories over the year increased by almost a quarter, and if some enterprises formed an export portfolio even partially the next year, while others, to put it mildly, sank and began to produce less refrigerators, tractors, loaders, and engines. However, in all cases , the engine of development is technological sovereignty. Without investment and technology , neither mtz, nor mas, nilas will go further than their home field. No less important is who is driving progress, be it the ceo, designer or mechanic. The economy is in the hands of man. All that remains is to act. Well, things are being done, export deliveries are being made, this is a laborintensive task, Andrei Mikhailovich said how many people in the country are working to ensure that one conventional tractor reaches foreign markets, but colleagues, developing the topic of export potential, we understand perfectly well that from an economic point of view, in order to benefit the country, well. The economic effect from exports was maximum, we need to work to reduce the share of imports in the price of our products, reduce intermediate consumption, and so on. Uh, heres the issue of import substitution, it was also raised at a meeting with the head of state, this is very it is important why, because this is the key to technological independence of protecting the economy from external factors, external challenges. Please tell us, sergey ivanovich, tell us a secret for viewers of the economic environment, what is the share of domestic components in belaz dump trucks, and if you have. A strategy to increase the level of localization, the head of state at the meeting set such a task for all industrialists, to develop such strategy, have you developed it, or are you just starting to develop it . Ok, lets outline the current situation, of course we have the model range is very wide, so its probably wrong to talk about average localization figures, ill say this, our level of localization for domestic components ranges from 60 to 75 , ill say it carefully, 75 are cars with hydromechanical transmissions, 60 is a car with electromechanical transmissions, if we consider the National Economy and enterprises within the republic of belarus, about 4060 is produced directly at production sites, the level of localization directly of our Holding Companies area if we look at the level of localization taking into account the share of the union state, then the picture here is quite optimistic, for example, for vehicles, for individual vehicles, while we are talking about the 3045 t class, the localization level exceeds 95 . Well, this is serious, but if we are talking about individual prototypes of mining dump trucks with a carrying capacity of, for example, 240 tons, the picture is the same. Map for the development of cooperation between the Russian Federation and the republic of belarus in part of the tool machine industry, and this means that the agreement provides for the implementation of joint programs, projects, Mutual Exchange of scientific developments, and the road map is a stepbystep plan for cooperation to create Competence Centers in russia or in the Russian Federation on the basis of these machinetool enterprises of ours. The roadmap provides for the creation of machines with 100 localization on the territory of the republic of belarus and the Russian Federation. Well, if we talk about the industry in general, you must own with these figures, what is the level of localization as a whole in the sled Construction Industry of our country . If we are talking about the belarusian component, then it is about 50 . If we are talking about a union state, then. Here we reach even up to 90 for a number of equipment, not well, for a number of equipment, on average a little 80, 80, some of the main nonmakers of industry, mechanical engineers and the mining sector, about the work of various mechanisms of a Large Industrial machine, in the story of alexey kondratenko, lets see, loaders on dairy farms. Or feed mixers, distributors, widecut sowing units or Grain Cleaning and drying complexes. The products of amkador Holding Enterprises contribute to the maximum. Returns in the agroindustrial complex. Moreover, our machine builders also offer Effective Technology for Land Reclamation work. This year , amkador plans to supply more than a hundred machines for work in the regions of belarus. We have developed a line of machines for the construction of open drainage systems and for the construction of closed drainage systems. This is a trench digger. This unique machines, no one has produced them in the republic of belarus before us. This is an excavator with a bucket volume of 1. 2 cubic meters. Tipper trailer. Thirtyton, that is , it is such a serious cargo transport vehicle that replaces eight to ten conventional tractors, that is, it increases the productivity and efficiency of work in agriculture. Our machine builders are strong in the production of forestry equipment; by the way, the woodworking industry itself operates practically without waste. European countries, such products are considered highly profitable. The beltop gas enterprise, which consists of 15 plants in the regions of the country, plans to produce about 2 million tons of peat this season. From these Raw Materials , approximately a million tons of fuel products will be made , mainly briquettes, as well as 150 thousand tons of various covering soils and nutrient soils, which. Used for agricultural needs, the products are in demand, today they are supplied to 21 countries of the world, over the past year we supplied 150,000 tons of various peat products worth 12 million, with in this regard, the asian vector is also actively developing, in particular, several fullfledged trains have been sent to china. Importsubstituting. That is, machine tools, please tell me, is the domestic machine tool industry today capable of providing our industry with modern, hightech equipment . Yes, i would like to note that over the past 2 years, the demand for products from the tanktool industry of the republic of belarus has increased several times, well, those restrictive measures, sanctions adopted by unfriendly countries in relation to the Russian Federation and in relation to. Technologically advanced processing centers, where a workpiece, a part is loaded, and several technological operations are performed automatically there, today at the ongoing exhibition in april of this year one was presented of hightech equipment, this is a fiveaxis Machining Center made in belarus, this is a gomel machine tool enterprise, it is planned at the exhibition in moscow in may its not easy to imagine, however, over these 8 years it has proven its technological level to be quite reliable. We also participated in a competition in the Russian Federation, which means we were selected at that time, it was the selected spanish manufacturer, when russian colleagues came to us, and we took them to the enterprise to show the line in action, they were surprised by the percentage of lowquality products that were produced there. It amounted to a fraction of a percent there, and if we are talking about the spanish line, then it was a percentage, so the quality of the directly produced products on our equipment is very high, its nice to hear, its nice to hear, dear experts, time is short, there are a lot of blocks, but i cant help but ask, im sharing my observations, i carefully looked at all the available video materials, meetings on Industrial Development under the leadership of the head of state, it was read here are the meetings, our president , in fact, put forward an initiative, i will quote it is reasonable to return to what i drew attention to, that in the end specific production tasks, do you think the time has come to introduce a comprehensive system of state planning in industry, in our compact republic of belarus, we have all the opportunities to plan very clearly, taking into account. Disposal of equipment at our enterprises, as for machine tools, taking into account the disposal of Agricultural Machinery , we can plan not for a year, not for two, but for three, that is, we can easily write a production program, absolutely clearly the head of the enterprise and his entire team will understand what he is doing for the belarusian market, this is planned production, this is planned procurement, respectively, what we talked about today is of appropriate quality, when there is no distortion on the Assembly Line at procurement. We understand what will clearly happen in our market , we understand that the demand was generated by the external market, but falling volumes always have peaks, demand sometimes falls, this is the art of a manager, to predict in order to smooth them out as much as possible. Separate fragments, separate elements of planning, they are certainly present, the ministry of industry and the regulator in this area in order to complete some tasks and so on, Andrei Mikhailovich, what do you think, because yesterday a meeting was held on the development of the agriculturalindustrial complex, and there was similar thesis
