This document summarizes a comparative study between Malthusian and Optimum theories of population. It includes sections on Malthusian theory, its features and criticisms, and a summary stating that population increases geometrically while food supply increases arithmetically, resulting in imbalance. The Optimum theory section explains that population is neither under nor over at the optimum level, and compares it to Malthusian theory by noting it is more optimistic and scientific by considering population control and national resources. Photos and bibliography sections are also included.

- 5. MalthuSiaN theOry Of POPulatiON Propounded by T.R. Malthus in his famous book “An Essay on Principle of Population”,1798 Population growth rate rises at a faster rate than the production of food or food supply According to Malthus," By nature, human food increases in a slow arithmetic ratio; men himself increases in a quick geometrical ratio unless want and vice stop him.”

- 8. SuMMary Of MalthuSiaN theOry MALTHUSIAN THEORY OF POPULATION Population increases Population increases in geometrical progression in arithmetical progression Results in imbalance between Population and food supply Correction of Imbalance Preventive Checks- late Positive Checks- famines, marriage, celibacy, epidemics, war, etc. etc. Preventive Checks is the best
- 9. OPtiMuM theOry Of POPulatiON Propounded by economist live Sedgwick, Cannon, Dalton, etc. Not a complete contrast of Malthusian Theory but an improved version Consider that the certain rise in population is beneficial for the utilization of productive resources
