There are more people who are born then die.
Birth Rate: 19.77 births/1,000 population (2008 est.)Death Rate: 6.16 deaths/1,000 population (2008 est.)
Population is affected by birth rate, death rate and migration.
The rate of natural increase in a population is determined by subtracting the death rate from the birth rate. This calculation gives the overall growth rate of a population without considering factors like immigration or emigration.
Developing countries have high rates of natural increase as their birth rates are high, and although their death rates are also high there is usually a big gap between the two figures. Malawi's natural increase is 30 per year for every 1,000 people. This is calculated from the Birth Rate of 51 minus the Death Rate of 21 (51 - 21=30). Developed countries have both a low death rate and low birth rate, with only a small gap between the two. Norway's natural increase is 3 per year for every 1,000 (14 - 10=3).
