The article discusses how fertility rates in China decreased from 1973 to 1987. Fertility rates dropped in all 28 regions, with some areas seeing a temporary increase due to family planning efforts. Factors like income, education, and minority populations were linked to fertility rates. It is now harder to lower fertility rates by a small amount compared to the past, but the goal is to reach replacement level soon.
