SUMMARYField trials were conducted in 1988 at the University of Ibadan to determine the effects of cypermethrin + dimethoate (Sherpa Plus®), the oil extract from ripe seeds of Piper guineense Schum & Thonn and the aqueous extract of ripe seeds of Azadirachta indica A. Juss on the pests and yield of cowpea. Cypermethrin + dimethoate was consistently superior to all other treatments in substantially reducing the population densities of Megalurothrips sjostedti Trybom and of Maruca testulalis Geyer, which are serious pests on flowers and buds, and in reducing the densities of four pod-sucking bugs. Pest population densities were also reduced by foliar sprays with A. indica or P. guineense extracts.Seed yield after treatment with cypermethrin + dimethoate was 0·99 t/ha, more than double the yield from other treatments. A marginal increase in seed yield compared with the control was achieved by foliar spraying with A. indica extract.

La culture du niébé requiert de nos jours, une attention particulière à cause de sa sensibilité aux insectes ravageurs. La présente étude vise à déterminer, au laboratoire, les doses optimales de la combinaison des biopesticides (Topbio et virus MaviMNPV) à utiliser dans la lutte contre les principaux ravageurs du niébé notamment, Maruca vitrata, Aphis craccivora, et Megalurothrips sjostedti. A cet effet, les insectes ont été inoculés avec différentes doses des combinaisons de Topbio et du virus MaviMNPV variant respectivement de660 ml à 1000 ml et de 70 ml à 106 ml en utilisant la méthode des surfaces de réponses. La mortalité et la survie des insectes ont été évaluées et les doses optimales de la combinaison des biopesticides ont été déterminées. Les résultats ont montré que les effets linéaires et/ou quadratiques de la combinaison des biopesticides influencent significativement les taux de mortalité, d’émergence des larves et de mortalité des chrysalides. Ces taux ont varié de 63,33 à 85%, de 12,5 à 37,5%, et de 44,44 à 87,5% respectivement pour les taux de mortalité, d’émergence des larves et de mortalité des chrysalides de Maruca vitrata. Les taux de mortalité des formes adultes de Aphis craccivora, et Megalurothrips sjostedti, ont varié respectivement de 88,33 à 95% et de 85 à 95%. L’efficacité optimale des biopesticides est obtenue pour 1000 ml de Topbio et 106 ml du virus MaviMNPV avec un taux de désirabilité de 85%.Mots clés : Topbio, virus MaviMNPV, ravageurs, taux de mortalité, taux d’émergence

<p>Studies were conducted to test the effectiveness of native soap against cowpea insect pests during the late cowpea cropping season in two agro-ecological zones-Asaba and Abraka, Delta State. Four major insect pests, namely the cowpea aphid, <em>Aphis craccivora</em> Koch, the legume flower bud thrips, <em>Megalurothrips sjostedti </em>Tryb, the legume pod borer, <em>Maruca vitrata </em>Fab and pod sucking bugs were studied. The experiment was made up of five treatments-1, 2 and 3 percent concentrations of native soap, cypermethrin (as conventional chemical and check) and a control. Each treatment was replicated three times. The experiment was arranged into a randomised complete block design (RCBD). The results showed that all the major insect pests occurred in the study areas but were more at Asaba compared to Abraka. Native soap was effective against <em>A. craccivora </em>and flower bud thrips population at Asaba. <em>Maruca vitrata </em>was not affected by soap application. Grain yield was high at Abraka and significantly (P&lt;0.05) higher than Asaba. The use of native soap as non-conventional insecticide in cowpea insect pests management appears promising, more so as it is not expensive and safe to handle. Farmers may prefer it to synthetic chemical pesticides with their associated dangers.</p>
