Overview

Cluster analysis reveals significant differences in fertility patterns across Assam's districts, suggesting targeted interventions.

  • The Low Fertility Zone has higher education levels and more Assamese-speaking women than the High Fertility Zone.
  • Age-Specific Fertility Rate was used to classify districts and analyze demographic variations effectively.
  • Findings reflect diverse socio-economic and cultural influences on fertility rates across different districts.
