ABSTRACT

Some models have been proposed for the projection of future size of population for short and long terms under the stability conditions with changed regime of fertility schedule. The main aim of this paper is to see the size of population if fertility is curtailed up to the level of replacement, especially in developing countries. Models have been illustrated taking a set of real and hypothetical data consistent with the current demographic scenario of India. It was found that the proposed models are the extended forms of the models developed by the previous researchers and the projected population is more or less consistent with them.
