The country with the lowest birth rate

The country with the lowest birth rate is Spain.

Maria Zuniga, an expert in university of zaragoza, said: "There is an urgent need to take action. Spain's current fertility rate is 1.26, which is one of the lowest in the world. Our society has turned children into a' luxury'. " Raphael Puyol, a demographer, pointed out that in a country or region, the "key" threshold to ensure intergenerational population supplement is the fertility rate of 1.5, and the ideal fertility rate is between 2 and 2. 1.

According to the website of Spanish newspaper "Abesaibao" reported on February 22nd, 65438, how to maintain the operation of a "childless" country under the trend of declining birth rate? Demographers have discussed this problem. The statistics of the Spanish Population Renaissance Foundation reflect this trend. "The baby boom has become history, and we have entered the age of silver hair," said Gonzalo Bavi, chairman of the foundation.

Spanish population introduction

Alejandro macaroon, CEO of the foundation, said that in 1976, Spain had a population of 36 million and almost no immigrants. That year, there were 677,000 newborns in China. By 20 17, the population of Spain will be 46.5 million, including 6 million long-term immigrants. There were only 396,5438+00,000 newborns in China, of whom 300,000 were born to Spanish mothers.

The report quoted data from the Spanish National Bureau of Statistics as showing that the number of new births in the first half of this year was less than177,000, the lowest since 194 1. But the more serious problem is that this trend continues. Experts said that this situation is difficult to improve, because of economic conditions and the stability of marriage, people's desire to have children is getting lower and lower.
