Answer:
Population growth enlarges labour force and, therefore, increases
economic growth. A large population also provides a large domestic market for
the economy. Moreover, population growth encourages competition, which
induces technological advancements and innovations. Nevertheless, a large
population growth is not only associated with food problem but also imposes
constraints on the development of savings, foreign exchange and human
resources. Generally, there is no consensus whether population growth is
beneficial or detrimental to economic growth in developing economies.
Moreover, empirical evidence on the matter for developing economies is
relatively limited.
