title: A quantitative model of population pressure and its potential use in development planning.
abstract: An attempt is made to develop a quantitative model of the concept of population pressure, using the example of population pressure on land resources in agricultural societies.  "The model shows that environmental quality is tied to population growth and that population pressure does not bear relationship with population density."  The implications of the findings for development planning are considered.  (summary in IND)
