    Family planning refers to the ability of individuals and couples to anticipate and achieve their desired number of children by spacing and timing their births. This is accomplished through the use of contraceptive methods and the treatment of involuntary infertility. This study examines family planning choices among rural residents in selected communities within the Moro Local Government Area (LGA) of Kwara State. To meet the specific objectives of the study, 400 questionnaires were distributed using a random sampling technique. Data was analyzed using tables, frequency counts, charts, simple percentages, mean scores, and ANOVA. The results of the study revealed that most rural residents are knowledgeable about family planning practices and their benefits. Among the contraceptive options, the barrier method is the most commonly preferred choice among respondents. Additionally, family planning practices are generally supported in the selected communities. The study found that religion does not pose a barrier to practicing family planning, as most rural dwellers reported using contraception during sexual intercourse. Furthermore, the majority of respondents did not perceive that family planning has side effects. It is recommended that women receive adequate education to actively participate in decisions regarding family planning. Additionally, family planning programs should be intensified to involve men and to enhance public awareness of the benefits of contraceptive use, ultimately fostering a positive change in attitudes toward family planning in rural areas.
