Cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.)Walp.is an important crop in Benin. Many pest comprising Aphids, Thrips and Maruca constitute bottlenecks to the crop development and growth. This study aims at assessing the efficacy of the cashew’s balms as alternative and ecological methods to control these pests. The study was performed using the cowpea local variety ‘‘TAWA’’ grown at the Agronomic Faculty farm in Benin. Completed Block Design was used with six treatments: untreated; insecticide LAMBDACE 25EC), cashew’s balms extracted while it is cold from the weaken hull of cashew; cashew’s balms extracted while it is cold from non-weaken hull of cashew;cashew’s balms extracted while it is hot from the weaken hull of cashew; cashew’s balms extracted while it is hot from non-weaken hull of cashew. Ten cowpea plants per plot have been used through the experiment from the flowering. The pests’ density was low in treated plots: the numbers of 50.91±18.63aphids; 0.20±0.06thrips; 2.16±0.61Maruca against133.58±11.02aphids; 0.93±0.06thrips; 9.91±1.46Maruca respectively for hot extracted from weakened hull of cashew and untreated.Finally, the treatments’ efficacy involved the improvement of grain yield, (P˂0.01). These results indicated that the cashew’s balms can be used to control these pests for safe and sustainable cowpea production.

... Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) is among the most important legume crops grown worldwide, with much of the current production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) [1]. It is native to the African continent and contributes to food security in SSA immensely because cowpea's entire aerial section (grain, green pods, and leaves) is edible [2]. ...

... However, in addition to being costly, the use of synthetic insecticides in food grain storage has detrimental impacts on both man and animal health, as well as on beneficial organisms resulting in widespread environmental pollution and biodiversity loss (Isman, 2008). Farmers alternatively utilize inert materials such as kaolin dust and certain biopesticides derived from local items such as citrus zest, neem extract, and chili, including some botanicals such as Artemisia annua, Anacardium occidentale, and Ocimum gratissimum (Akunne et al., 2013;Brisibe et al., 2011;Ileke, 2019;Kpoviessi et al., 2019Kpoviessi et al., , 2017. Although these local biopesticides have been shown to pose few health and environmental risks, their effectiveness is limited. ...
