In which situation can rural population growth be slow or negative?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When youth move out for employment

Correct answer: A. Rural population growth depends on births, deaths and migration. When many young people leave a village or rural region for employment, out-migration reduces the number of people living there and may make its population growth slow or even negative. This does not mean that every village must lose population; the result depends on the balance between births, deaths, people arriving and people leaving. B is not the best answer because better health facilities can reduce deaths, and the condition says there is no migration. C is wrong because a very high birth rate tends to increase population, other things being equal. D is wrong because people entering the village are in-migrants and usually add to its population. Memory cue: people leaving subtract from local population; people arriving add to it.
