The 17th Congress of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Organisation for the 2020–2025 term set out 19 key objectives and tasks, including four targets for the agriculture sector namely an average growth rate of 4.5% for agriculture-forestry-fisheries; forest coverage of over 51.5%; access to clean water for 95% of the rural population; and 70% of communes achieving new rural standards.

To achieve these goals, the agriculture sector has implemented comprehensive measures. These include drafting policies to support production, encouraging investment in agriculture and rural areas, and increasing the value of key products. The sector has also successfully implemented the 2021–2025 restructuring plan across five subfields. Policies have been introduced to focus on provincial-level key products, organic agriculture, and local specialties, fostering production-to-consumption linkages and aligning with new rural development. Efforts have been made to resolve obstacles, creating value chains for agricultural products. The sector has expanded product promotion on e-commerce platforms, trade fairs, and exhibitions to boost sales.

After four years of implementing the Resolution of the 17th Congress of the provincial Party Organisation, two targets have been met, including forest coverage has surpassed 51.5%, and 95% of the rural population has access to clean water.

A highlight of the province’s agriculture has been promoting agricultural product exports. Export activities have not only focused on selling goods abroad but also on standardizing techniques for production, harvesting, and preservation, ensuring international-standard products for the domestic market.

The province has actively engaged export enterprises, identifying potential products and export markets to align product quality and standards. Efforts include issuing plantation and farming codes, GlobalGAP and ISO certifications, and food safety and phytosanitary compliance.

The development of specialised cooperatives for key products has strengthened connections between households and export enterprises. The province has also monitored changes in export market requirements, guiding stakeholders to respond effectively. Promotional efforts for flagship agricultural products have been expanded via media, trade fairs, and domestic and international trade promotion events.

Hoa Binh’s strategic location near Hanoi, diverse land and climate, and experienced agricultural workforce provide significant advantages. The Da River reservoir, known as the "Inland Ha Long Bay," offers potential for aquaculture and eco-tourism. The agriculture sector has integrated aquaculture with community-based tourism. Key initiatives include developing clean fish farming areas under VietGAP standards, conserving high-value fish species, and promoting fishery-based tourism.

The second Da River Fisheries Festival, part of the province’s 2024 Culture and Tourism Week, aims to enhance fishery development, promote eco-tourism, and enhance the branding of trademarked products such as "Hoa Binh Da River Shrimp" and "Hoa Binh Da River Fish." These efforts are positioning fisheries as a pivotal economic driver for the province.

To ensure sustainable agricultural development, the province is focusing on comprehensive planning, digital transformation, mechanization, and automation. The province aims to attract investment in agricultural product processing and logistics while enhancing the capacity of cooperatives and partnerships. Ensuring quality certification aligned with market demands and expanding trade promotion efforts will also be prioritized.

The agriculture sector remains a cornerstone of Hoa Binh’s economy, driving innovation and sustainability.
