Agricultural Land Use Systems (LUS) contributes to Green Revolution (GR) and sustainable development in Vietnam, however, the GR exerts a dual impact-both positive and negative-on agricultural LUS in suburban regions. Land Quality Indicators (LQI) is integrated into the Pressure-State-Response (PSR) model to assess agricultural LUS across four landscapes in a peri-urban area of Hanoi capital city (Vietnam). The selected 75 indicators are subject to elimination based on the distinct natural and social contexts prevalent in each landscape. The findings indicate that primary pressures impinging upon agricultural LUS are dwindling irrigation water, escalating erosion resulting from cultivation, inadequate agricultural infrastructure, price imbalances, and pollution from industrial parks and craft villages. An amalgamation of traditional and high-tech solutions is recommended to enhance the quality of organic produce and foster stronger connections between suburban and urban. Integrating LQI into the PSR framework supplants conventional assessment methods, paving the way for more effective sustainable land use planning in peri-urban areas in the foreseeable future
