Abstract
Integrated Pest Management technique is used to formulate a mathematical model by using biological and chemical control impulsively. The uniform boundedness and the existence of pest extinction and nontrivial equilibrium points is discussed. Further, local stability of pest extinction equilibrium point is studied and it has been derived that if T≤T_max, the pest extinction equilibrium point is locally stable and for T>T_max, the system is permanent. It has also been obtained that how delay helps in eradicating pest population more quickly. Finally, analytic results have been validated numerically.
Keywords- Plant-pest-natural enemy, Boundedness, Local stability, Permanence.
