Philippines is one of the country has greater population. The first official census in the Philippines was carried out in 1877 and recorded a population of 5,567,685. By 2009, the Philippines have become the worlds 12th most populous nation, with a population of over 92 million. By 2011, our country have 94,013,200 (94 million) population. It is estimated that half of the population resides on the island of Luzon. There are about 11 million Filipinos outside the Philippines. A live birth occurs when a fetus, whatever its gestational age, exits the maternal body and subsequently shows any sign of life, such as voluntary movement, heartbeat, or pulsation of the umbilical cord, for however brief a time and regardless of whether the umbilical cord or placenta are intact. This definition of the term "live birth" was created by the World Health Organization in 1950 and is chiefly used for public health and statistical purposes. Whether the birth is vaginal or by Caesarean section, and whether the neonate is ultimately viable, is not relevant to this statistical definition. However, the term "live birth" was in common use long before 1950. In the United States, the term "born alive" is defined by federal statute. We determined the total of live birth in our municipality by the use of Crude Birth Rate. It is the nativity or childbirths per 1,000 people per year (in estimation review points). Another word used interchangeably with "birth rate" is "natality". When the crude birth rate is subtracted from the crude death rate, it reveals the rate of natural increase. This number is equal to the rate of population change (not factoring in migration). It is important to distinguish between a total or crude birth rate, which uses all births, typically indicated as births per 1000, versus an age1
specific rate which is typically indicated as the number of births per 1 000 persons in this age group. The first known use of the term "birth rate" in the English language was in 1859. The birth rate is typically the main variable in assessing the rate of population growth. According to the United Nations' World Population Prospects: the 2008 Revision Population Database, crude birth r1ate is the number of births over a given period divided by the person-years lived by the population over that period. It is expressed as number of births per 1,000 populations. CBR = (births in a period / population of person-years over that period). Another indicator of fertility that is frequently used is the total fertility rate, which is the average number of children born to each woman over the course of her life. In general, the total fertility rate is a better indicator of (current) fertility rates because, unlike the crude birth rate, it is not affected by the age distribution of the population. Fertility rates tend to be higher in less economically developed countries and lower in more economically developed countries. It is ranging from 1020 births per 1000 are considered low, while rates from 4050 births per 1000 are considered high. There are problems associated with both an extremely high birth rate and an extremely low birth rate. High birth rates can cause stress on the government welfare and family programs to support a youthful population. Additional problems faced by a country with a high birth rate include educating a growing number of children, creating jobs for these children when they enter the workforce, and dealing with the environmental effects that a large population can produce. Low birth rates can put stress on the government to provide adequate senior welfare systems and also the stress on families to support the elders themselves. There will be less children or working age population to support the constantly growing aging population.
Generally, birth rate is calculated using live birth counts from a universal system of registration of births, deaths, and marriages, and population counts from a census or using estimation through specialized demographic techniques. Birth rate is also commonly used to calculate population growth. It is combined with death rates and migration rates to calculate population growth. (Crude) live birth rate= Total number of live births Total population However President Aquino, have a goal to decrease the population of our country and to decrease the starving of many people in his term. Using the Family Planning Program it is supported by the Rh Bill Program or Reproductive Health Bill Program. This program is a Philippine bills aiming to guarantee universal access to methods and information on birth control and maternal care. We include the Family Planning to decrease our population. It is the planning of when to have children, and the use of birth control and other techniques to implement such plans. Family Planning is also a service are defined as "educational, comprehensive medical or social activities which enable individuals, including minors, to determine freely the number and spacing of their children and to select the means by which this may be achieved." Historically, human population control has been implemented by limiting the population's birth rate, usually by government mandate, and has been undertaken as a response to factors including high or increasing levels of poverty, environmental concerns, religious reasons, and overpopulation. Otherwise, the population control can involve measures that improve people's lives by giving them greater control of their reproduction. 1,000
