Quickly growing population of Kenya ? jas ,most people in lowest age cohorts Percentage in older age groups declines successively with markedly sloping sides.

The most populous country in the Southeast Asia region is Indonesia ? Physiological density is the number of people per area suitable for agriculture ? A country with a large amount of arable land and a small number of farmers will have a low agricultural density ? If the physiological density is much larger than the arithmetic density, then a country has a small percentage of land suitable for agriculture ?
