Abstract: In the context of global digital transformation and the increasing need for sustainable agriculture, high-tech agriculture (HTA) has become a strategic direction for many developing countries, including Vietnam. Do Luong district in Nghe An province possesses favorable natural conditions and a large labor force, yet its agricultural sector has struggled to modernize due to land fragmentation, capital limitations, and weak technological integration. This study aims to assess the current status of HTA development in Do Luong, identify major obstacles, and propose feasible solutions. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, combining secondary data from 2015–2024 with stakeholder analysis and SWOT methodology, which the research evaluates both crop and livestock production practices. Although several HTA initiatives have been introduced, such as greenhouse vegetable cultivation, automatic irrigation, and VietGAP certified supply chains, their adoption remains modest and uneven. The study is grounded in the Agricultural Innovation Systems framework and the technology acceptance model to provide both theoretical and comparative perspectives. Findings highlight multiple challenges, including lack of skilled human resources, limited institutional support, and unstable market conditions. In response, the paper suggests integrated solutions focusing on land consolidation, digital transformation, human resource training, and policy reform. The research offers a roadmap to support sustainable and inclusive agricultural modernization aligned with Vietnam’s Industry 4.0 agenda.
