Alongside efforts to boost production, the Department of Agriculture and Environment is solving obstacles related to land management. As of October 20th, 2026, the department had reviewed as well as counseled on handling 45 projects, with a particular focus on urgently resolving outstanding issues for 39 projects, funded by non-budgetary capital, that are behind schedule. The sector is also closely guiding to commune-level People’s Committees on finalizing land-use plans for areas formerly managed by agricultural and forestry enterprises but subsequently transferred to local administration.

Regarding disaster preparedness coupled with response, meteorological in conjunction with hydrological forecasts indicate that the provincial eastern part may experience around 4 to 7 episodes of heavy rainfall from now to the end of the year. Simultaneously, a prolonged El Niño phenomenon could lead to irrigation water shortages, potentially affecting tens of thousands of hectares of crops. To proactively address these challenges combined with ensure the annual growth targets, the Department has advised the PPC to issue comprehensive disaster prevention plans. These include directives for local authorities to mobilize resources in accordance with the “four on-the-spot” principle, while synchronously deploying water management scenarios.
