Abstract

An optimal harvesting problem is analyzed in the Lotka-McKendrick model of age-structured populations. Depending on the imposed constraints, this problem possesses bang-bang or impulse regimes, which have meaningful interpretations and relevant policy implications. A steady state analysis of the model produces closed-form solutions for the optimal sustainable harvesting in a new and an existing population. © World Scientific Publishing Company.
