Since 1990s the bloom of industrialization and urbanization brings the changes of social and economic issue of Vietnam rural areas. During this process, rural households have reduced agricultural land for cultivating. From the status of food producers now they become food consumers. Through surveying 215 households in Bac Ninh province, the study shows that that industrialization and land conversion process affected household food security in several aspects: the lost of agricultural land and surplus agricultural production decrease; unguaranteed decent work for peasants and high living cost; the decline of living quality and food safety. Food consumption of the family has shifted from self-reliance to the way that more depend on market. Household food security becomes more vulnerable, especially for households that have limited access to land and incapability of finding stable jobs. Family has adapted by living apart but keeping strong connection. Besides, rural households move back to the local traditional agricultural activities to ensure their own food quality.
