Abstract

In this paper, we propose a mathematical delay model that can describe the dynamics of the co?ee berry borer, Hypothenemus hampei. We propose a model include di?erent delays which are important for the life cycle of Hypothenemus hampei. The obtained model is completely analysed and we present a numerical simulation in order to validate the theoretical results.
