China News Service, May 15 (Xinhua) According to the National Statistics website, the National Bureau of Statistics released data on the value added of industrial enterprises above the designated size in April on the 15th. The gradual recovery of industrial production and other characteristics.
In April, as the central government coordinated the implementation of various policies and measures for epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, the economic and social order was further restored. The year-on-year growth rate of industrial production increased from a decline to an increase. However, from the cumulative point of view from January to April, the decline in industrial production is still more obvious, and the downward pressure on the industrial economy is still greater.
First, the level of resumption of production has generally improved, and industrial production has gradually recovered. According to a survey by the National Bureau of Statistics, as of April 24, 84.6% of the industrial enterprises above designated size have reached more than half of the normal production level, an increase of 4.1 percentage points from the beginning of April; 60.8% of the enterprises have reached more than 80% of the normal production level. This is an increase of 9.6 percentage points from the beginning of April. In April, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 3.9% year-on-year, compared with a decrease of 1.1% last month. All major economic types and large, medium and small-sized enterprises have increased from a decline. From January to April, the added value of industry decreased by 4.9% year-on-year, a decrease of 3.5 percentage points from the first quarter.
Second, most industries and regions have achieved growth, and product growth continues to expand. In terms of industries, in April, among the 41 major industries, 28 industries realized a year-on-year increase in value-added, and the number of industries increased by 12 from the previous month; 33 industries accelerated or decreased in production from the previous month. In terms of regions, 27 of 31 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) achieved growth, an increase of 9 from the previous month. In terms of products, among the 612 industrial products included in the statistics, 367 products achieved growth, an increase of 140 from the previous month, an increase of 60.0%, an increase of 22.9 percentage points from the previous month; the growth rate of 429 products accelerated or decreased Narrow, accounting for 70.1%.
Third, the equipment manufacturing industry has improved significantly, and automobile production has rebounded sharply. In April, the added value of the equipment manufacturing industry increased by 9.3% year-on-year, compared with a decrease of 3.6% last month. Among them, the automobile manufacturing industry increased by 5.8%, compared with a decrease of 22.4% last month; the special equipment, instrumentation, electrical machinery, metal products, and general equipment industries all changed from negative to positive, with a growth rate between 7.5% and 14.3%; computer electronics The railway, ship and aerospace industries grew by 11.8% and 5.7% respectively, and the growth rate accelerated for two consecutive months. In terms of products, in April, automobile production was 2.1 million units, the year-on-year growth rate changed from a decline of 43% last month to an increase of 5.1%; industrial robots increased by 26.6%, and generator sets, excavators, concrete machinery, and optical cables all increased. The growth rate is more than 40%, and the growth rate is more than 10 percentage points faster than last month; the growth rate of computer computers, integrated circuits, railway wagons, and civil steel ships is between 29.2% and 115.6%, which are significantly faster than last month.
Fourth, the production of high-tech manufacturing continues to accelerate, and emerging products are growing rapidly. In April, high-tech manufacturing increased by 10.5% year-on-year, and the growth rate accelerated by 1.6 percentage points from the previous month. Among them, the computer and office equipment manufacturing industry, medical equipment and instrument manufacturing industry grew by 25.7% and 22.2% respectively, the growth rate accelerated significantly by more than 15 percentage points; the electronics and communications equipment manufacturing industry grew by 9.7% and continued to maintain rapid growth. Among the emerging products, 3D printing equipment, smart watches, ultra-clear glass for solar industry, carbon fiber and its composite materials, smart bracelets and other new materials and electronic products have growth rates of 344.7%, 127.4%, 57.6%, 47.3%, and 31.2 %, Continuing the trend of rapid growth.
Fifth, the basic raw material industry has rebounded significantly, and the output of cement and crude steel has increased. Investment demand has gradually recovered, infrastructure construction has been accelerated, and the raw materials industry has picked up faster. In April, the non-metallic mineral mining industry and non-metallic mineral products industry increased from negative to positive year-on-year growth rates, respectively increased by 5.5% and 4.2%; non-ferrous metals, steel and chemical industries increased by 6.9%, 4.6% and 3.2%, respectively Accelerating; The production of petrochemical industry continued to decline due to the influence of international crude oil prices, but the decline has narrowed significantly; the year-on-year growth rate of cement and crude steel output has changed from negative to positive, and the growth rate of ten nonferrous metals has accelerated.
Sixth, production in the consumer goods industry continued to pick up, and medical and epidemic prevention materials continued to maintain rapid growth. In April, the paper and food industries increased by 7.9% and 7.5% year-on-year, respectively, and the growth rate was 7.1 and 1.8 percentage points faster than that of last month; the growth rate of printing, agricultural and sideline food, textile, chemical fiber and other industries changed from negative to positive. Between 0.5% and 5.8%; wine, beverage, tea, apparel, furniture, culture, education, industry, beauty and other industries have narrowed the decline. The production of medical epidemic prevention materials maintained rapid growth, the output of masks increased by 12 times year-on-year, and the output of medical equipment, instruments and alcohol increased by more than 50%. The supply of daily necessities and anti-epidemic materials continued to be sufficient and stable.
Although industrial production continued to recover in April, it should also be noted that the cumulative industrial added value from January to April was still down by 4.9% year-on-year. Most industries and products had negative growth rates. Inventories rose and profits fell, and business operations were still more difficult. The impact of the epidemic on the industrial economy is continuing, especially the impact of the epidemic abroad is showing, and the downward pressure on the industrial economy is still large. In the next step, we should continue to do a good job of the "six stability", implement the "six guarantees" task, help enterprises resume production and order recovery, and promote the industrial economy to gradually return to normal operation.
