In terms of the commune’s current economic structure, agriculture and services play a key role and the small industry and handicrafts occupy a small proportion. In the future, along with the development of Nhon Trach New City and the formation of the tourist urban area of ​​Ong Con island in Dai Phuoc the number of non-agricultural workers will increase, which contributes to gradually increasing the proportion of industry and services. Now, people’s main source of income comes from agriculture and services. The main crops are rice, vegetables and a few fruit trees located in residential areas. People’s living standards are still low due to unstable agricultural product prices, low crop yields, old varieties and gardens planted with various fruit trees, and low proportion of livestock industry.

Now, Dai Phuoc has 1 medical station with 1 doctor, 1 physician, and 2 nurses to well meet people’s examination and treatment needs to implement the population and family planning program effectively and reduce the natural population growth rate to below 1.4%.

Thanks to its above-mentioned conditions, Dai Phuoc has many advantages in socio-economic development. Although Dai Phuoc’s infrastructure is relatively complete and its agricultural sector has advantages of rice and crops, the economic efficiency of these crops has become poor in recent years. Therefore, to overcome this problem Dai Phuoc needs to gradually convert inefficient and less effective crops like types of crops and one-crop rice to other more advantageous purposes such as fishery farming and fruit trees. Dai Phuoc’s industry, and small industry and handicrafts have not been a strong point in its economic structure and it is necessary to promote the development of these industries. This is also a step towards rural industrialization and modernization. In general, the ability to create jobs for local workers in services and handicraft industries is low.

In addition, Dai Phuoc has still had some weaknesses such as the level of its labor force is low; its farmers have still had many difficulties in accessing science and technology; prices of agricultural products are low and how to find outputs for its agricultural products has not been solved. Therefore, the State needs to further improve the propaganda system from radio and television media, books, and newspapers; improve vocational education, career orientation and agricultural extension for local people as well as upgrade and develop the systems of rural transport and communication and living conditions in accordance with the future socio-economic development trend.

In addition, it is essential to identify varieties of plants and animals as well as the occupations that can help create jobs and contribute to improving people’s living standards.
