Bifurcation analysis and optimal harvesting of an intraguild predation three-level food web model with harvesting on top two levels

Puntos clave

• Optimal harvesting strategies can stabilize intraguild predation dynamics and enhance resource management.
• The bifurcation analysis reveals critical points where predator populations significantly change.
• Analysis across various harvesting scenarios demonstrates their impact on predator dynamics and population sustainability.
• These findings support better management of ecosystems, but further investigation into real-world applications is needed.
