However, if the predator has a pest-dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest-dependent monotone functional response is introduced into a “patch” such as a prairie strip with AF, and then disperses or drifts into a neighboring “patch” such as a crop field, to target a pest. We show that the pest extinction state is attainable in the crop field and can be globally attracting. The AF model with a patch structure can eliminate predator explosion present therein and can keep pest densities lower than the classical top-down biocontrol model. We provide the first proof of the global stability of the interior equilibrium for the classical AF model. We also observe “patch-specific chaos” – the pest occupying the crop field can oscillate chaotically, while the pest in the prairie strip oscillates periodically.
