The current index of prices for purchased products has fallen to the lowest level in the last 9 months, although it is still in the zone of high values by historical standards. The labor utilization rate has also reached a fairly high level – 95%. Meanwhile among the factors limiting production, the «shortage of qualified workers» rose to second place with a rating of 36%.
