Allocation, Distribution, and Zoning of Land According to Practical Planning to Drive Socio-Economic Development

The Dong Nai Provincial Planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision toward 2050, covers a total natural land area of over 586,000 hectares, of which agricultural land is over 416,000 hectares, and non-agricultural land is nearly 170,000 hectares.

(News Portal – Dong Nai) - After the provincial planning for Dong Nai for the period 2021-2030, with a vision toward 2050 (hereinafter referred to as "Provincial Planning"), was approved by the Government, the Provincial People's Committee issued a decision to allocate land use quotas to 11 districts and cities. 

The allocation and zoning of land under the planning aim to ensure that different land regions, functional zones, and land types are used for the right purposes, catering to the development needs not only in the immediate future but also in the long term.

Bien Hoa City Has a Large Reserve of Non-Agricultural Land 

Increase in service, commercial, and infrastructure land

As of the end of 2020, Dong Nai had a total of over 586,000 hectares of land. Of this, agricultural land accounted for 79% of the area, while non-agricultural land accounted for 21%, with unused land comprising only a very small portion—about 9 hectares.

According to the province's assessment, land use in recent years has been in line with the planning and for the correct purposes, ensuring compliance with the State's regulations on land management. The allocation and zoning of land have fully met the socio-economic development goals, with the land reserve being utilized effectively, and the efficiency of land use in terms of economic, social, and environmental aspects has been increasingly improved.

Under the Provincial Planning, the total natural land area of the province remains unchanged compared to 2020, but the structure of land types has seen significant changes. Specifically, by 2030, the agricultural land area will decrease by more than 45,800 hectares compared to 2020, reducing from 79% to over 71%. Meanwhile, non-agricultural land will increase from 21% to nearly 29% of the province's total natural area.

Director of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, Mr. Dang Minh Duc, noted that the land use quotas mentioned above are based on the national land use quotas allocated to the province, the results of land use planning for the period 2011-2020, and the plan for land allocation and zoning according to functional zones and land types up to 2030. These quotas are considered based on the current situation, the potential, and the land use orientation; they also take into account proposals for land use from localities, departments, and sectors, as well as the development strategies of industries and sectors in the province during the 2021-2030 period.

When viewed by administrative units at the district level, localities with forests generally have larger land use quotas. Among them, Vinh Cuu District has the largest with nearly 109,000 hectares, equivalent to over 18% of the province's natural land area. Next is Dinh Quan District, accounting for over 16%, Tan Phu District with over 13%, and Xuan Loc District with nearly 13% of the province's total natural land area. Localities with lower land use quotas include cities and newly separated districts, with Long Khanh City having the lowest at nearly 20,000 hectares, followed by Thong Nhat District with nearly 25,000 hectares, and Bien Hoa City with over 26,000 hectares.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Phuong, Chairman of Vinh Cuu District People's Committee, said that in the district's land use plan, forest land and agricultural production land account for the majority. This is an advantage for the locality to develop eco-tourism based on forests and lakes, as well as to promote clean agriculture.

Mr. Vo Van Phi, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, stated that land is a finite resource and an indispensable condition in the development process. Proper use of this resource not only determines the future socio-economic development but also ensures national security and defense objectives. In the allocation and zoning of land, the province emphasizes the principles of ecological balance and sustainable development, with land development guided by strategies for organizing economic and urban spaces according to the planning and land allocation quotas set by the Government. The distribution ensures the effective exploitation and use of the entire land reserve for specific purposes, with strict protection of highly productive rice-growing areas, protective forests, special-use forests, and nature reserves; it also aims to maintain forest area stability and minimize forest land conversion.

A Real Estate Project in Dong Nai 

Creating Momentum for Socio-Economic Development

The land allocation and zoning plan has had a significant impact on the current and future socio-economic landscape. Economically, assigning land, leasing land, and changing land use purposes according to the planned scheme will generate land-related revenue for the budget. Additionally, through the conversion of land use purposes as outlined in the planning, various projects will be implemented, promoting local economic development and increasing land value.

Socially, the acquisition of residential land for investment projects, infrastructure construction, and the development of industrial zones/clusters will affect the jobs and housing of some residents. The land allocation and zoning plan under the Provincial Planning has calculated an adequate reserve of residential land for resettlement, natural population growth, and mechanical population growth in urban areas.

In terms of infrastructure development, by 2030, nearly 10,000 additional hectares of land will be allocated for the construction of technical, social, and economic infrastructure projects, laying the foundation for socio-economic development, strengthening national defense and security, and contributing to industrialization and modernization efforts. Of this, an additional 7,000 hectares will be designated for transportation land, and over 1,100 hectares for education and training facilities. The additional land allocated for infrastructure purposes will help promote economic development toward industrialization and modernization, raising the province's socialization indicators to higher levels.
