How is Net Reproduction Rate calculated?

A population's net reproduction rate is most commonly calculated as Total Net Reproduction Rate or TFR for short. The Total Net Reproduction Rate (TFR) is a standard demographic indicator that is used internationally to estimate the average number of children born per woman in a population. It is calculated by adding up all the age-specific net reproduction rates, multiplying this sum by five (the width of the age-group interval), and then dividing by 1,000.

Population Net Reproduction Rate Formula

Total Net Reproduction Rate = (Sum of ASFR x 5 ) / 1,000
