"We look at the results of our work in the past year. They are learned in comparison. We need to look at the main macroeconomic indicators in 2015 and see the data of 2016. The gross nation product of the country fell by 3.7% last year. This year there will be a slight decline, we expect about 0.7-0.6%. In November we observed a small increase of the gross nation product in the country. For the year we will have a reduction of 0.5-0.6%," - said the President, answering a question about the outcome of Russia in 2016.

According to the Head of the state, growth in economy comes at the expense of the real economy, engineering, chemistry, light industry and processing industries.

"As for agriculture there is a serious growth there. Last year it was 2.6%. At the moment the growth is 4.1%, for the year will not be less than 4%. Agriculture is showing very good dynamics and this year inflation will look completely different," said Vladimir Putin, quoted by The DairyNews.

The President noted that in 2011 there was the best indicator of inflation - 6.1%.

"This year we will definitely have less than 6%. Most likely the figure will be around 5.5%. This is a record low level of inflation. We will be able to reach the levels of 5% and 4.5%," - said Vladimir Putin.
