In this paper, we consider three species harvesting model and develop a solution procedure which is able to calculate the equilibrium points of the model where some biological parameters of the model are interval numbers. A parametric mathematical program is formulated to find the biological equilibrium of the model for different values of parameters. This interval-valued problem is converted into equivalent crisp model using interval operations. The main advantage of the proposed procedure is that we can present different characteristics of the model in a single framework. Analytically, the existence of steady state and stabilities are looked into. Using mathematical software, the model is illustrated and the results are obtained and presented in tabular and graphical forms. Int. J. Biomath. 2015.08.

In the development of the above models, there are some lacunas in the formulation and solution of the models. These are:• None formulated a joint project of three related biological species such as fish, broiler and duck and studied the system. • None evaluated the three species system with uncertain biological parameters such as interval or fuzzy parameters.In this paper, we consider three species dynamic model and develop a solution procedure which is able to calculate the equilibrium points of the model where some biological parameters of the model are interval numbers. A parametric mathematical program is formulated to find the behavior of the model (biological equilibrium) for different values of parameters. The proposed procedure is more effective and interesting since we get different behavior of the model using functional form of an interval parameter for different values of parameters. We develop a new procedure to study this three species dynamic model using interval-valued technique. The main advantage of the proposed procedure is that we can present different characteristics of the model in a single framework.The paper is organized as follows. In Sec. 2, we discuss some prerequisite mathematics on interval numbers and Sec. 3 for notations. In Sec. 4, we formulate the model with crisp data. In Sec. 5, the model is extended in imprecise environment. We discuss the boundedness of the system in Sec. 6 and the local stability of the imprecise model in Sec. 7. Some particular cases have been discussed in Sec. 8. We have discussed a brief description of the results and figures of the numerical experiment in Sec. 9. This paper is concluded in Sec. 10.
