New Zealand's fertility and death rate
The line graph gives information concerning the changes in New Zealand's fertility and death rate over the period from 1901 to 2101.
Over the 60-year period, from 1901 to 1961, there was a considerable change in the birth rates of New Zealand. In more details, the birth rates fluctuated slightly between 20000 and 30000 during the first 40 years from 1901 to 1941 then growing exponentially to 65000 in 1961. Afterwards, the rate varied considerably from 50000 to 65000 until the present day and it is anticipated to fall slowly to 40000 in the end of the century.
The death rates, meanwhile, rose gradually from 9000 to nearly 30000 in the twentieth century and maintained at over a half of the birth rates. This was followed by a period of rapid acceleration, with death in the country reaching the peak of 60000 in 2061. However, the following 4 decades is expected to have no more significant changes.
Overall, the huge gap between New Zealand's birth and death rates is probably being reversed at around 2041 ever since.
