The main tool we use to obtain our result is the Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem. In particular, this paper improves important and interesting work [X.H. Tang, X. Zhou, On positive periodic solution of Lotka-Volterra competition systems with deviating arguments, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 134 (2006), 2967-2974]. Moreover, as an application, we also exhibit some special cases of the system, which have been studied extensively in the literature.", keywords = "Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem, positive periodic solutions, Lotka-Volterra competition systems, variable delays", issn = "1232-9274" }
