Export prices were in particular depressed by the falling prices of oil products from July 2014.

The fall in prices was slowed down, in particular, by higher prices of electronic appliances.
From June to July, producer prices for manufactured products rose by 0.1 per cent.
The rise was mainly due to increased prices of electricity from the previous month as per the statistics.
