Thus, the constraints are the shape of the curve of diminishing returns and the travel time (the time it takes to make a round trip from the nest to a patch and back).

Handling time (h) is the amount of time it takes the predator to handle the food, beginning from the time the predator finds the prey item to the time the prey item is eaten.

The growth of the predator population will depend on this number, and on the efficiency with which predators convert consumed prey into predator offspring (c for conversion). Note that this is also a constant, and like the solution for the prey population, it does not specify the equilibrium size of the predator population, only the size of the prey population at which the predators are at equilibrium.
