Abstract
In this study, we propose a predator–prey model incorporating impulsive density-dependent nonlinear pesticide spraying and the release of predators (natural enemy of the pest) at different fixed moments. The pest extinction semi-trivial periodic solution is derived. Further, global asymptotic stability of the obtained periodic solution and the permanence of the studied model are acquired. Depending on the maximum number of pest natural enemies released impulsively, the threshold for pest extinction is derived. By considering the impulsive period as a bifurcation parameter, the condition for a supercritical bifurcation in the system is obtained. To verify the correctness of the results obtained in this paper, study the impact of key parameters on the pest extinction threshold condition, and explore more complex dynamic behaviors of the model, numerical simulations are conducted. These simulations demonstrate that the optimal impulsive control period varies for different pest management strategies. Moreover, the maximum release quantity of natural enemies, the impulsive control period, and the maximal fatality rate of pesticide for pest significantly influence the dynamic behaviors of the model. The results presented in this paper offer significant theoretical implications for integrated pest management.
