The concept of efficiency (Pareto optimum) is used to formulate duality for multiobjective fractional programming problems. We consider programs where the components of the objective function have non-negative and convex numerators while the denominators are concave and positive. For this case the Mond-Weir extension of Bector dual analogy is given. We also give the Schaible type vector dual. The case where functions are ρ-convex (weakly or strongly convex) is also considered.
