Abstract

This research discusses a problem in renewable resource (fish) harvesting on single-owner fishery where the dynamics of growth are expressed by system of difference equations. The model involves three state variables (stock of equity, resource stock in reserve zone and unreserved zone) and two control variables (effort rate and dividend payout rate). Discrete Pontryagin maximum principle was applied to obtain optimality conditions which must be satisfied by the variables. Further, the forward-backward sweep method was used to determine the numerical solution of optimal control model. Three scenarios of interest rate applied to find out the response of company in managing harvesting effort and dividend payout rate were investigated.
