Co To Island Pursues Sustainable Agriculture Model for Economic Growth

The Co To special zone, located in Quang Ninh city, is implementing a comprehensive strategy to advance sustainable agricultural production while protecting its natural environment and preserving the island's distinctive landscape. The initiative reflects broader efforts across Vietnam to align agricultural expansion with conservation objectives.

Authorities in the zone are prioritizing clean and sustainable farming methods that reduce environmental impact while maintaining productivity. The approach emphasizes linkages between agricultural activities and resource management, ensuring that farming operations complement rather than compromise ecosystem health and natural heritage preservation.

The sustainable agriculture push represents a key economic pillar for the special zone's development strategy. By positioning green production as a competitive advantage, Co To aims to attract investment in environmentally responsible agribusiness while supporting local farmers in adopting higher-value, lower-impact farming systems.

The initiative aligns with Vietnam's broader commitment to financing and promoting green agriculture nationwide. As the agriculture sector continues to sustain economic growth momentum in 2024, the emphasis on sustainable practices is strengthening the foundation for long-term development that balances productivity with environmental responsibility across the region.
