In this paper, a new consumer-resource competition model with a state-dependent maturity delay is developed, which incorporates one resource species and two stage-structured consumer species. The main innovation is that the model directly manifests the relationship between resources and maturity time of consumers through a correction term, $1-\tau'(x(t))x'(t)$. Firstly, the well-posedness of the solution is studied. At the same time, the existence and uniqueness of all equilibria are discussed. Then, the linearized stabilities of the equilibria are achieved. Finally, some sufficient conditions which ensure the global attractivity of the coexistence equilibrium are obtained.
