According to the synthesis of localities, the farms are creating regular jobs for 2,308 people. Of which, 1,633 are family workers; 675 are hired workers of farm owners. Most of the workers on the farms work based on experience and have only attended training courses; not many workers have graduated from specialized training courses. The total land area of ​​the farms is more than 1,012 hectares. The development of the farm economy has promoted the exploitation and expansion of land for agricultural production and aquaculture, transforming low-lying areas and agricultural production with low economic efficiency into large-scale commodity production areas, linked to market demand; effective agricultural mechanization support policies have helped farms reduce labor costs and increase production value.

Investment capital for construction and production development on the farms is mainly the farm owners' own capital (accounting for about 78%), the rest is loans from banks and other credit institutions (accounting for about 22%). To date, the total investment capital of the farms has reached more than 2,280 billion VND, the average investment capital per farm is nearly 3 billion VND. The total revenue of the farms in 2024 reached more than 2,398 billion VND, an average of more than 3.1 billion VND/farm.

With the dynamism of the farm owners, and the support of the State, farms in the fields of cultivation, livestock, aquaculture and mixed farms have all achieved high economic efficiency. Typically, in the field of cultivation, there is the farm of Mr. Hoang Huu Quoc, Tien Tien commune (Phu Cu), with an area of ​​9.1 hectares and a revenue of 5 billion VND/year. In the field of livestock, there is the farm of Mr. Nguyen Duc Tuan, Ngoc Thanh commune (Kim Dong), with a revenue of 3.2 billion VND. In the field of aquaculture, there is the farm of Ms. Nguyen Thi Treo, Dong Ket commune (Khoai Chau), with an area of ​​3 hectares and a revenue of 3 billion VND/year. A typical example in the field of integrated farms is the farm of Mr. Nguyen Quang Hien, Hung An commune (Kim Dong), with an area of ​​3.3 hectares and a revenue of 2.3 billion VND/year...

From the need to improve competitiveness in the market, the increasing demand for linkage in agricultural production and consumption of goods, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has supported farmers and organizations representing farmers to develop production linkages along the industry chain from input supply, production to product consumption. Production linkage organizations along the chain are diverse in form and level, and have been replicated in many localities; farms have cooperated to establish 251 cooperatives and 700 agricultural cooperative groups. A typical example is the farm of Ms. Dong Thi Thu Huong, Tien Tien commune (Phu Cu) which is linked with traders in the Central region with a consumption output of 185 tons of lychee/year. Mr. Hoang Van Khanh's farm in Yen Phu commune (Yen My) is linked with An Phat Organic Agricultural Value Chain Production and Development Cooperative with an output of 100 tons of pork/year. Mr. Nguyen Van Thinh's farm in Ha Le commune (An Thi) is linked with Bao Nam Trading and Service Company Limited (Yen My) to consume about 100 tons of commercial fish/year, and links with farm owners inside and outside the province to consume hundreds of millions of fingerling...

To promote farm economic development, in the coming time, the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has been strengthening the implementation of policies to support investment in building infrastructure for transportation, electricity, environmental treatment systems... To encourage and support farms to invest in applying high technology, digital transformation, green transformation, circulation in management, production, traceability of agricultural products; invest in waste treatment systems for concentrated livestock and crop farming areas, and areas planned for farm economic development, in order to encourage households and individuals to develop farms, ensuring environmental requirements. At the same time, coordinate with localities to train and improve the level of production management, business, science and technology; organize study tours for farm owners and farm workers to organize management and effective production and business activities. To encourage businesses to invest, link production, processing and consumption of products for the farm area; coordinate with agencies and units to regularly organize online and direct conferences for farm owners on skills to promote, introduce and sell products on e-commerce trading floors... Along with that, the agriculture and rural development sector and localities step up guidance and support for farms, households, and farmers to link and cooperate to establish new cooperatives, cooperative groups, and agricultural enterprises; build links in production and consumption of products according to the industry value chain, contributing to promoting production development and stabilizing the consumption market.
