First thing first. Dropped birth rate itself is from from genocide. China does not have genocide on Han people, even if the birth rate dropped significantly https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/44133954.pdf https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/44133954.pdf
Then, where is the source data?
The birthrate of all ethnic groups are listed in https://zh.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E5%9B%BD%E5%90%84%E6%B0%91%E6%97%8F%E7%94%9F%E8%82%B2%E7%8E%87%E8%A1%A8 https://zh.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E5%9B%BD%E5%90%84%...
Note Uyghur (维吾尔族) birth rate is 1.991 in 2000 and 1.842 in 2010. The same time the other groups vary a lot, but mostly the difference lies in the area economy development degrees. Ie, more advanced areas have lower birth rate.
Planned birth can cause drop in birth rate. As in the case of the one child policy.
Planned birth is violating human rights. But it's not genocide.
All in all, check the facts and see who are producing them. I am not a professional reporter, and I only believe extraordinary claim require extraordinary proof.
All evidence so far can only lead to the speculation that Uyghur population might be growing much slower (for that I still not see evidence that it's outlier compared to the whole population trends in China as a whole, I.e., Chiese population is undergoing huge aging and low birth rate across the nation).
If you want to link one data points to genocide, then I assue you I can come up with genocide claims in any nations on earth.
