Abstract

This study aims to estimate the factors affecting the agricultural production process on the problem soil of Tan Thanh district as a case study to develop solutions for sustainable agriculture.

Through consultation with 150 households and 60 experts, Four primary and 18 secondary factors were identified that affect the agricultural land use of the community.

The results show the factors of the consumption market, government organization, profit and soil quality that are the factors that receive much attention from experts by the “multi-criteria evaluation” method. On the contrary, the aspects of problem soil, irrigation capacity, flooding and drought time are of little interest to experts. The results have also proposed 12 groups of structural and non-structural solutions to improve the district's agricultural land use efficiency. Which focuses on the consumption market, cost, profit and government organization.
