The Chinese culture has always promoted sons over daughters because the society has been dominated by
males. In villages, where hard work is needed to sustain the agriculture, a boy is always preferable due to
his superior physical strength compared to that of a girl. [D] In such circumstances, looking forward to a
male baby seems justified. If people have to limit their families, it is obvious they would prefer a boy
over a girl child. This problem has been accentuated by the use of ultrasound scanning which helps
determine the sex of the fetus. This technology has played a crucial role in creating gender imbalance.

Overpopulation, the situation of having large numbers of people with too few resources and too little
space, is closely associated with poverty. It can result from high population density, or from low amounts
of resources, or from both. Excessively high population densities put stress on available resources. Only a
certain number of people can be supported on a given area of land, and that number depends on how
much food and other resources the land can provide. In countries where people live primarily by means
of simple farming, gardening, herding, hunting, and gathering, even large areas of land can support
only small numbers of people because these labour intensive subsistence activities produce only small
amounts of food.
In developed countries such as the United States, Japan, and the countries of Western Europe, overpopulation
generally is not considered a major cause of poverty. These countries produce large quantities of food through
mechanized farming, which depends on commercial fertilizers, large-scale irrigation, and agricultural
machinery. This form of production provides enough food to support the high densities of people in
metropolitan areas.
A country's level of poverty can depend greatly on its mix of population density and agricultural productivity.
Bangladesh, for example, has one of the world's highest population densities, with 1,147 persons per sq km. A
large majority of the people of Bangladesh engage in low productivity manual farming, which contributes
to the country's extremely high level of poverty. Some of the smaller countries in Western Europe, such as
the Netherlands and Belgium, have high population densities as well. These countries practice mechanized
farming and are involved in high-tech industries, however, and therefore have high standards of living.
At the other end of the spectrum, many countries in sub-Saharan Africa have population densities of less
than 30 persons per sq km. Many people in these countries practise manual subsistence farming; these
countries also have infertile land, and lack the economic resources and technology to boost productivity. As
a consequence, these nations are very poor. The United Slates has both relatively low population density
and high agricultural productivity; it is one of the world's wealthiest nations.
High birth rates contribute to overpopulation in many developing countries. Children are assets to many
poor families because the provide labour, usually for farming. Cultural norms in traditionally rural societies
commonly sanction the value of large families. Also, the governments of developing countries often
provide little or no support, financial or political, for family planning; even people who wish to keep their
families small have difficulty doing so. For all these reasons, developing countries lend to have high rates of
population growth.
