Modeling Fertility and Growth of Mising Community of Assam, India

Deba Kr. Baruah, S. C. Kakaty

Abstract :

There are many studies available to model non–human population by Leslie Matrix, but few attempts are in literature so far as modeling human population is concerned. By using fertility rates, survival rates, and base population for a given population, this model can be used to calculate growth of human population also. The model can also be used to determine whether the given population will increase or decrease in each age class over a long period of time and also to project future population. In this paper we propose to carry out a study in order to investigate the fertility behavior and growth of population of the Mising community , Assam exploiting the above mentioned approaches and an about 3 per cent per five year long term growth of women population is indicative .
