Abstract The data analysed in the present study were collected in the course of a demographic survey conducted at repeated intervals in the Sine-Saloum region of Senegal. 1 This study was financed by a grant from the 'Fond d'aide et de coopération' of France, from 1963-65, and by the WHO Section for Research on Human Reproduction from 1966-67. The study was conducted by ORSTOM in collaboration with the Statistical Service of Senegal. The data used in this paper were analysed at INED. Only the data concerning the Sine (Niakhar) area are analysed here.
