This study aims to present estimates of the proportion of Vitamin A deficient children aged six months to five years in the Philippines at the provincial level. Two estimation procedures, namely; direct and indirect, were used and compared in this study. Direct estimation technique used data set from the 6th National Nutrition Survey (NNS), specifically, the level of plasma retinol which is used to determine Vitamin A deficiency. Indirect estimation technique employed model-based techniques, specifically regression-synthetic, empirical best linear unbiased prediction (EBLUP), and Poisson regression based techniques. Two data sets,namely: 2000 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) and 2002 Field Health Service Information System (FHSIS) were used as sources of possible auxiliary variables. Direct estimation generated provincial proportions which range from 0.040 (Davao Oriental) to 0.941 (Mt. Province), with mean square errors ranging from 0.0003 to 0.0422, and coefficients of variation where 9.59% of the computed coefficients are less than 10%. Int he regression-synthetic estimation technique, a weighted least squares model with an adjusted-R square of 27.
