Analysis of the Fulfillment of the Tasks of the X Five-Year Plan (1976-1980) Industrial Enterprises of the Kursk Regionviziltir

Abstract

Relevance. In the years of the X five-year plan the country's industry was faced with the task of improving the efficiency and quality of production at minimal cost by introducing new technologies, mechanizing production and reducing manual labor. But the administrative and command management system turned out to be unable to respond quickly, new technologies were poorly implemented, and existing equipment was outdated. Using the example of the implementation of the tasks of the X five-year plan at the industrial enterprises of the Kursk region, it is possible to assess the positive and negative sides of the Soviet production management system.Purpose. To investigate the results of the X five-year plan in the industrial production of the Kursk region and identify the results of the main directions of industrial development set by the XXV Congress of the CPSU at the regional level.Objectives: to analyze the reports of industrial enterprises of the region to assess the results of production activities based on the results of the X five-year plan.Methodology. Scientific methods were used in the research: synthesis, analysis, comparison, analogy, generalization, induction, deduction.Results. The tasks of the X five-year plan at the industrial enterprises of the region were not fulfilled in full. In the food industry, there was a failure to meet targets for the volume of products produced. The introduction of new technologies and automation were carried out at a slow pace, as a result of which labor productivity increased slightly. Mechanical engineering turned out to be the most promising industry in the region.Conclusion. The all-Union trends aimed at fulfilling the ten-year plan have found expression in the Kursk region. But the efforts made by the management of enterprises did not always give a positive result. Almost all the studied enterprises in the region slightly exceeded the planned indicators. The most promising enterprises turned out to be in the machine-building industry, where new equipment was introduced, production processes were mechanized, there was an influx of labor and labor productivity increased.
