Abstract

This study measures and investigates the digital economy's expansion in Vietnam's agriculture sector from 2008 to 2018. Input-out (I-O) tables from the OECD statistical database were used to assess the performance of ICT applications in creating Vietnam's digital agriculture sector and compare them to Indonesia's, emphasizing the cross-country relative ranking. The research findings highlight the achievements and challenges of using ICT to develop digital agriculture in Vietnam, with the Vietnamese government playing a leading role. However, the potential for development has yet to be thoroughly realized over a 10-year period because Vietnam's productivity indicators remain low compared to Indonesia. The study also comprehensively provides a thorough picture of ICT application in digital agriculture, recommending some policy implications to encourage practitioners to become more involved in this area. This can strengthen the ICT’s critical role in actively promoting Vietnam’s digital agriculture, hence driving the digitalization of the sustainable economy in general.
