Population
Growth

2. Population pyramid of Low Rate
Population Growth
• Shaped like a beehive
• Low birth rate and
death rate
• Longer life expectancy
• Lesser babies than the
elderly

3. Cause of Low Population Growth
• Low birth and death rate.
• Lesser babies born and people dying

4. Factors causing low birth rate

• In developed countries, there is a constant
supply of food and water which cause lesser
people to die due to shortage of food and
water
• Better health care prolong people’s life
expectancy

6. Consequence of low rate of population
growth
• Working population in the country will be smaller

to attract worker with skills to help in the develop
of the country as there are lesser workers

• Let worker work for a shorter time so that
they can plan for their families and not worry
about work.
• Provide allowance for larger families which
encourage them to have more babies

8. Summary
Population pyramid of low rate population
growth has a beehive shape, have low birth and
death rate and lesser babies than the elderly. Late
marriage, small family, family planning, increase
of singlehood, better sanitation, constant supply
of food and water and better health care are
causes . Shrinking worker caused higher tax,
competition of foreign talent and ageing
population are consequence. Changing family
planning, letting worker have shorter and flexible
working time and giving allowance for larger
families are controls
