Neco 2024 Agricultural Science Question 36
Practice objective / multiple choice question 36 from the 2024 Neco Agricultural Science examination.
A lake's fish population follows the logistic model \(P(t)=\frac{K}{1+A e^{-rt}}\). At \(t=0\) the population is 2,000 fish, at \(t=5\) years it is 3,500 fish and the carrying capacity is \(K=8,000\) fish. Determine the intrinsic growth rate \(r\) (to four decimal places) and then compute the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) given by \(\text{MSY}= \frac{rK}{4}\). Give the MSY rounded to the nearest whole fish.
