A. Data Management

Existing data, conceptual data, and secondary data will be used to support the study. These data are important to determine
the topics that should be included or not in the research. Topics which are related to each other and to the main topic to be integrated
in the design of a Conducive Working Environment for an Eco-efficient Agro-industrial Development in Paombong, Promoting
Renewable Energy Source from Nipa.

a. Present Condition

1. Demographic Data

Projected Population and Distribution of Paombong, Bulacan

Paombong is a municipality in the province of Bulacan. In the 2015 census, the population of Paombong, Bulacan,
was fifty-three thousand two hundred ninety-four (53,294) people with a density of one thousand two hundred (1,200)
inhabitants per square kilometer or three thousand one hundred (3,100) inhabitants per square mile.

The municipality of Paombong has fourteen (14) barangays. Barangay San Isidro II has the biggest population with
ten thousand six hundred forty (10,640), accounting to nineteen-point zero four percent (19.04%) of the total population
(Table 2.1). This could be attributed to the fact that the said barangay is near the highway. Its accessibility has most likely
drawn a large number of people to reside in the barangay. Moreover, San Isidro II is one of the biggest barangays in
Paombong in terms of density (population per area in hectare in each barangay).

two (394.4162) while Barangay Binakod has the smallest density with only three point one thousand nine hundred forty-
