Research on the demographic consequences of environmental stress (drought and famine, in particular) has not been conclusive. Using primary survey data on the demographic consequences of drought and famine in the drought‐prone areas of northern Ethiopia, this study argues that growing environmental stress and persisting food insecurity have stimulated changes in the demographic behaviours and attitudes of farming communities, including: an increase in acceptance rates of family planning services; changing attitudes towards early marriage and having a large number of children; actual reduction in fertility; migration (particularly of the youth) out of the communities; and the tendency by many farmers to be involved in non‐farm income‐generating activities and employment sectors.
