Much work to be done in the management of crop cultivation and plant protection.

To improve the effectiveness of state management in the field of cultivation and plant protection, authorities still have much work to do.

Through specialized inspection activities, agricultural material stores are increasingly aware of better compliance with legal regulations.

779 organizations and individuals were fined for violations.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, in recent years, the Provincial People's Committee has issued many documents directing and assigning responsibilities to departments, branches and localities in the implementation and coordination of management and supervision of production and trading of plant varieties, fertilizers and pesticides.

The Provincial People's Committee has established a provincial steering committee to strengthen the fight against smuggling, trade fraud, and counterfeit and poor-quality goods, focusing on strictly implementing decrees on administrative sanctions for violations in the fields of cultivation, plant protection and plant quarantine.

Every year, the Department of Agriculture and Environment proactively coordinates with relevant units to implement decrees on administrative sanctions for violations in the fields of cultivation, plant protection and plant quarantine, promptly detecting and handling violations of the law.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, in the period of 2016 - 2025, the Department, the Market Management Department, and local People's Committees discovered and handled administrative violations in the fields of cultivation, plant protection and plant quarantine against 779 organizations and individuals with a total amount of over 4.1 billion VND. The Department of Agriculture and Environment has transferred 3 violation files in the fields of cultivation, plant protection and plant quarantine to the police agency for investigation and criminal prosecution.

Through specialized inspection activities, every year, units and localities actively guide organizations and individuals to raise awareness and comply with legal regulations.

Heavier responsibility at the commune level

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, the implementation of the Government 's decrees on administrative sanctions for violations in the fields of cultivation, plant protection, and plant quarantine still faces many difficulties. For example, for the same administrative violation of trading goods without a certificate of eligibility, the penalty levels between the decrees are different. The department has proposed appropriate amendments to this content.

According to Mr. Mai Van Tung - Chairman of the People's Committee of Quang Khe commune, the locality has a large area and economic life is still difficult, so there is a lack of human resources and facilities to carry out inspection, supervision and punishment according to the decrees. The implementation of remedial measures such as confiscation of evidence or forced destruction of illegal breeding materials is hindered by lack of funding and supporting infrastructure.

Currently, the People's Committees at the commune level are responsible for conducting specialized inspections of agricultural material production and trading establishments. This is a big and difficult task for communes and wards in the new context of operating a two-level local government.

Specifically, according to the leader of the People's Committee of Truong Xuan commune, currently, the locality does not have a person specialized in plant protection, fertilizers, and seedlings. Therefore, in the coming time, the commune needs to be supported by the provincial level in training and fostering to better meet the requirements of the job. It is known that the number of production and business establishments in the field of agricultural materials and plant varieties in Truong Xuan is quite large, while the area is large, fertilizer products and plant protection drugs are increasingly diverse, and the requirements for professional expertise are increasingly high, so there is a lot to do to manage well.
