Explanation:
Total fertility rate represents the number of children that would be born to a woman if she were to live to the end of her childbearing years and bear children in accordance with current age-specific fertility rates. The total Fertility Rate for Nepal was more or less constant till the eighties and thereafter it started to decline. The Nepal Demographic and Health Survey 2011 provided an estimate of TFR for Nepal to be 2.6. The total fertility rate in Nepal seems to be in a declining trend during the last 40 years.
