In which, the work "Nghe An Highlands Catches Up With Digital Transformation", 5 episodes by the group of authors Thanh Phuc - Hoai Thu, Nghe An Newspaper, Radio and Television unit won the C prize, Electronic Newspaper category.

The Organizing Committee's assessment shows that most of the entries have deeply reflected the transition from traditional agricultural production to a multi-value economic model, green agriculture, and a typical circular economy. There have been many excellent entries focusing on writing and reflecting on the model of a new, civilized, modern farmer, portraits of outstanding, inspirational Vietnamese farmers. There are also a series of articles expressing the concerns of journalists about the conflicting issues arising in the new context of the current agricultural sector.

Besides those bright spots, journalists also show their dedication, not afraid of hardships and dangers to carry out exclusive "heavyweight" investigative series, determined to shed light on the hidden corners and "dark sides" that exist in the fields of agriculture, farmers, and rural areas.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the 3rd National Press Awards on Agriculture, Farmers and Rural Areas in 2025, Comrade Luong Quoc Doan - Member of the Party Central Committee, Vice Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Farmers' Association emphasized: Reporters, journalists, and press agencies have always accompanied and stood side by side with farmers and the Vietnamese peasant class throughout the past period, especially in 2025 with many difficulties and challenges. At every moment and event, we always receive the attention, companionship, and timely presence of the press.
