Thus, a total fertility rate of 2.1 represents replacement level, while anything below represents a sub replacement fertility rate leading to population decline.

This change has been triggered by fertility rates that sunk below replacement level and continued to fall.

A good example is Sweden, where fertility rates dropped between 1970 and 1980, and subsequently rose to replacement level by 1990.

237. Since the mid 1970s, most industrialized countries experienced sub replacement fertility levels.

An important implication of the decline in the fertility rate to replacement level or below is the pressure on the family to care for the elderly.

In 2007, Belarus's population declined by 0.41 and its fertility rate was 1.22, well below the replacement rate.

In 2009, the Member States with the highest fertility rates were Ireland (2.06), France (2.00), Sweden (1.94), and the United Kingdom (1.90), all approaching the replacement level of 2.1 children born per female.

In conclusion, from 1950 onwards, it may be observed that births in Greece show a steady downward trend today they approach 1.3 per woman, a percentage significantly below replacement level fertility (2.1 children per woman).

The OECD member countries and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States also experienced declines in their already low fertility rates, causing many of them to express concern regarding persistent sub replacement fertility levels.

Again, the trend is that both the number and percentage of youth will decrease in those countries, as fertility will probably remain below replacement level for some time, and the number of elderly is expected to rise.

The total fertility rate (TFR) in 2013 was estimated at 1.42 children born per woman, which is lower than the replacement rate of 2.1.

Fertility

Indeed, 83 countries and territories, including most developed countries, currently have fertility rates below the level necessary to maintain a constant population level.

First, with its birth rate well below replacement level, Japan s population is aging and shrinking.

At national level, there is still a difference of one child between the wanted fertility rate and the actual total fertility rate with provincial variations indicating lower ideal and actual fertility rates for most urbanized provinces Lusaka and Copperbelt (refer to figure 3).

That is still far below the replacement rate of 2.1, but higher fertility, together with successful measures to reduce male mortality, has slowed the pace of population shrinkage.

His replacement, however, holds the rank of a Brigadier General, who was appointed at the D 2 level.

Despite the progress made in reducing the total fertility rate, there are still significant differences between desired and actual fertility, which are related to women's level of education, place of residence, income and ethnic group.

The aim of government policy in managing the size and growth of population is to reduce the fertility rate to replacement level by the year 2010 2015. It is recognized that poverty, illness and ignorance, as well as large families are the main causes of low population quality.

Moreover, fertility rates have fallen sharply, to a point where populations in many countries will probably level off in coming decades.

I found fertility at birth, and I looked at total fertility rate per woman.

233. The fertility level in Oceania declined by 38 per cent, from 3.4 children per woman in 1970 to 2.1 in 1990.
