The higher fertility rate witnessed in 1950 compared to year 2010 may be attributed to the limited access to contraceptives and family planning strategies during that time.

Fertility rate may be described as a measure of the ratio of number of child births recorded to the number of total females in a particular year.Family planning strategy and the use of contraceptives are used to regulate child birth, and it's adoption wasn't pronounced during the 1950's, this may be a very likely reason for the higher fertily percentage recorded at the time.Women have child bearing age, hence, delaying child birth till later years might not be a likely reason.Increased access to Healthcare is related to recent years, Healthcare isn't as accessible in 1950 as it is 2010Shifting to an agriculture - centric economy requires high fertility rate as children are used to aid farming activities.

Therefore, the most probable reason for the higher fertility rate recorded in 1950 is due to the limited access to birth control strategies.

b. Families had limited access to family planning and contraceptives

Explanation:

The correct answer is b, because:

a. Women had increased educational opportunities and had children later in life.

If it was this, the fertility rate would be the same. Age is not a part of the fertility rate.

c. There were lower infant mortality rates as a result of increased access to healthcare.

These variables(fertility, infant mortality) are not related.

d. The country shifted to a more agricultural-based economy and the need for child labor decreased.

Agricultural-based economy means a higher need for children, so fertility rates tend to be higher.
