We present a spatial food chain model on a bounded domain coupled with optimal control theory to examine harvesting strategies. Motivated by the fishery industry in the Black Sea, the anchovy stock and two more trophic levels are modeled using nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations with logistic growth, movement by diffusion and advection, and Neumann boundary conditions. Necessary conditions for the optimal harvesting control are established. The objective for the problem is to find the spatial optimal harvesting strategy that maximizes the discounted net value of the anchovy population. Numerical simulations using data from the Black Sea are presented. We discuss spatial features of harvesting and the effects of diffusion and advection (migration speed) on the anchovy population. We also present the landing of anchovy and its net profit by applying two different harvesting strategies.

Keywords: Partial differential equations, optimal control, spatial harvesting, Black Sea anchovy, fishery management, food chain model.
