Agriculture – rural – farmer is a crucial issue in Vietnam development policy. There are huge challenges in enhancing the efficiency of agriculture production. This paper focused on the estimation and determinants of rice production of Vietnam rural farmers. Based on VHLSS database in 2016, the author checked and manipulated 3299 observations which were surveyed all 6 regions in Vietnam. This paper uses the Data Envelopment Analysis approach (DEA) to estimate the score of production efficiency. The results showed that the score of Vietnam rice production efficiency not good, mean at 8,95/100. Additionally, the author determined the effect of the factors on the efficiency score through the Tobit regression model. The model results reveal that labor and livelihood diversity effect on the efficiency of rice production of Vietnam rural farmers. Moreover, the difference in the geographical region and soci-economic characteristics also formalize the difference in production efficiency score among farmers in Vietnam.
