The population number has been constantly decreasing, coupled with the decrease in younger population, which has reproductive capacities, and the mature population, the active population segment , i.e. having productive capacities within the society. South Banat village Laudonovac is an example of a typical Vojvodina village. Village with a marked depopulation, which inevitably leads to its disappearance. The high mortality rate, birth rate whose value has been 0 in the last 10 years, average age of 54.5 years, intensive migrations and bad economic situation are causing disappearance of one more Vojvodina village from geography map
