Waec Model Questions Vol1 2024 Agricultural Science Question 13
Practice objective / multiple choice question 13 from the 2024 Waec Model Questions Vol1 Agricultural Science examination.
A lake stocked with tilapia follows the logistic growth model \(\frac{dN}{dt}=rN\left(1-\frac{N}{K}\right)\) where the intrinsic growth rate \(r=0.6\) year⁻¹ and the carrying capacity \(K=8000\) fish. A constant annual harvest \(H\) (fish year⁻¹) is imposed. Determine the maximum constant harvest that can be sustained indefinitely without driving the population to extinction (i.e., the maximum sustainable yield). Also give the equilibrium population size that corresponds to this harvest.
