This study projected
future total fertility rates (TFRs) for Oman from 2019 to 2030 using Artificial
Neural Networks by employing TFRs for Oman from 1960 to 2018 obtained from the
World Bank Online database. The study
results show that projected TFRs for Oman are expected to be almost constant at
2.8.
