Effects of pesticide dose on Holling II predator–prey model with feedback control

We establish a Holling II predator–prey system with pesticide dose response non-linear pulses and then study the global dynamics of the model. First, we construct the Poincaré map in the phase set and discuss its main properties. Second, threshold conditions for the existence and stability of boundary periodic solution and order- $ k (k \geq 1) $ periodic solutions have been provided. The results show that the pesticide dose increases when the period of control increases, while it will decrease as threshold increases. Sensitivity analyses reveal that critical condition for the stability of boundary periodic solution is very sensitive to control parameters and pesticide doses. The bifurcation analysis reveals that the proposed model exists complex dynamics. Compared to the model with fixed moments, it demonstrates that the density of pest population not only can be controlled below the threshold but also can avoid some negative effects due to pesticide application, confirming the importance of biological control
