Abstract
SummaryThe fertility of Japanese agricultural immigrants settled in eastern Bolivia was studied in comparison with Japanese populations in South Brazil and in Japan. The fertility of the Japanese in Bolivia was found to be high compared with the contemporary Japanese living in Japan, and lay between the levels for South Brazil in 1952 and for Japan in 1970. It is supposed that the Japanese immigrant women in Bolivia maintained the high level of fertility which was prevailing in Japan at the time when they had emigrated, while the level of fertility in Japan had declined remarkably.
