By the 1860s, the crude birth rate of Argentina was estimated to be just under 47 births per thousand people, meaning that just under five percent of the population was born in each of these years. Birth rates in Argentina would then fluctuate, but see an overall decrease in the second half of the 19^th century, falling to approximately 44 births per thousand people by the turn of the century. This rate would begin to decline more rapidly in the early 20^th century, due to improvements in healthcare (particularly vaccination campaigns), education and basic sanitation, falling to just over 24 births per thousand people by 1950. Argentina's birth rate would stagnate somewhat in the next two decades, with slight increases coinciding with the most politically and economically unstable time periods. Birth rates would continue to fall from the 1980s onwards, albeit at a slower rate than in previous decades, as military rule in Argentina came to an end. It is estimated that, in 2020, just over 17 children were born for every thousand people in the country.
