It covers both national and aliens, native and foreign-born persons, internees, refugees and any other group physically present within the borders of a country at a specified time. In assembling national demographic statistics for publication, the basic aim has been to obtain data for the physical present (or “de facto”) population rather than for the legally established resident (or “de jure”) inhabitants. Population density – refers to the number of persons per unit of land area (usually in square kilometers). This measure is more meaningful if given as population per unit of arable land. 2nd Floor Galanto Bldg., New Site, San Miguel, Jordan, Guimaras Email Add: [email protected] Tel. No. (033) 331-2844 P a g e | 5 Population Growth Rate - indicates how fast a population increases or decreases as a result of the interplay of births, deaths, and migration during a given period of time. Where the population is closed, meaning no migration, the population growth rate is the same as the rate of natural increase, i.e., the difference between the number of births and the number of deaths during a specified period of time. The three methods for computing the rate of growth based on the assumption with respect to the change are: arithmetic change, geometric change and exponential change. The 2020 Census of Population and housing was undertaken by the Philippine Statistics Authority in August 2020. It was undertaken pursuant to Republic Act No. 10625, also known as the Philippine Statistical Act of 2013 and executive Order 352- Designation of Statistical Activities That Will Generate Critical Data for Decision-Making of the Government and the Private Sector. Information on the count of the population was collected with 12:01 a.m. of May 1, 2020 as the census reference time and date. The result was officially declared by President Rodrigo Duterte through Proclamation No. 1179 on July 6, 2021. The Philippine Statistics Authority Guimaras Provincial Statistical Office, would like to express grateful appreciation to the member-agencies of the Provincial/Municipal Census Coordinating Board, the Local Chief Executives, the Barangay Officials, the men and women hired CPH personnel, the PSA Staff, all households, institutions and the general public, for the full support, and cooperation tendered that led to the successful conduct of the 2020 CPH.

    TECHNICAL REPORTS: INVESTIGATIONS 2007-2009 TRAINING IN SUSTAINABLE COASTAL AQUACULTURE TECHNOLOGIES IN INDONESIA AND THE PHILIPPINES Mitigating Negative Environmental Impacts/ Activity/ 07MNE02NC Hasan Hasanuddin Ujung Battee Aquaculture Center Banda Aceh, Aceh Indonesia Kevin Fitzsimmons Department of Soil, Water and Environmental Science University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona, USA Russell Borski Department of Biology North Carolina State University Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Anicia Hurtado Aquaculture Department Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Iloilo, Philippines ABSTRACT Shrimp monoculture in Indonesia and the Philippines has led to a decline in mangroves, degradation of water quality, diseases in shrimp, and low prices due to over-production. The aim of this investigation was to provide training and techniques through a series of workshops for more sustainable shrimp farming that incorporates culture of seaweed and tilapia-shrimp polyculture and soft shell crab farming as an alternative. These objectives were met through a series of workshops and demonstration projects. A large number of shrimp farmers in Indonesia and to a lesser extent in the Philippines have adopted these more sustainable techniques. Many shrimp farmers in the Pidie and Beuren Districts have adopted tilapia and shrimp polyculture. Others have adopted seaweed / shrimp polyculture and have begun to harvest and process seaweeds in addition to the shrimp. After a soft shell crab workshop, a few shrimp farmers have started placing crab cages in their ponds. The farmers are starting to produce soft shell crabs, but it is unclear if they are doing this as a polyculture or have switched entire ponds from shrimp to crab culture. INTRODUCTION The 9.0 magnitude earthquake that struck the Aceh Province of Indonesia impacted 30,000 households who had registered with aquaculture being the primary household livelihood.

    ICM Solutions Toward Ecotourism Development in Basyaw Cove, Guimaras, Philippines: Planning and Management by a People’s Organization in Cooperation with Development Partners • With the assistance of, and in partnership with various government and donor agencies, local communities of Guimaras Province, Philippines, are successfully being engaged to overcome the challenges of environmental degradation, enabling them to propose, execute, and manage community-based programs of environmental protection and conservation. • One particular people’s organization is the Katilingban sang Magagmay nga Mangingisda sa Dolores (KAMAMADO). Comprised of marginal fisher folks, it has established a track record in successfully developing and implementing conservation projects with a variety of partners. This has led to additional opportunities. • The KAMAMADO formulated the Basyaw Cove Development Plan, a key component of which details the development of an ecotourism park in the area. The plan is currently being rolled out and has garnered support from the local government, private sector, and international development agencies. Context The island province of Guimaras is the youngest and smallest of the six component provinces of the Western Visayas region in the Philippines. Guimaras is composed of five coastal municipalities: Jordan (the provincial capital), Buenavista, Nueva Valencia, Sibunag, and San Lorenzo. Known as the “mango country,” Guimaras Island has 8,000 ha of mango orchards managed by corporations and individual growers. The province is also endowed with fishing grounds rich in marine biodiversity, and boasts of white-sand beaches and diving spots. In fact, Guimaras Island has been proclaimed as the “island to watch” due to the huge potential of its pristine natural beauty.
