    During this analysis, as per natural control approach in pest management, a plant-pest dynamics with biological control is proposed, here assuming that the pest and natural enemy are having different levels of gestation delay and harvesting rate of pests by natural enemy follows Holling type-III response function. Boundedness and positivity of the system are studied. Equilibria and stability analysis is carried out for possible equilibrium points. The existence of Hopf bifurcation at interior equilibrium is presented. The sensitivity analysis of the system at interior equilibrium point for model parameters has been explored. Numerical simulations are performed to support our analytic findings.
