ABSTRACT
This project work is
focused on the application of dennettia tnpetala (pepper fruit) extracted oil
in cowpea storage, at O.5m1, 1.ml, and 1.5m1 concentrations. The work
investigated the influence of the plant extract on the quality of the cowpea
after storage Cowpea is a rich source of carbohydrates ,protein ,dietary
fibres, calories, and mmerials. Callosobruchus maculates is the most common
storage pest encountered in the cowpea storage. The treatment with oil
extracted from pepperfruit reduced callosobruchus macutatus and also gave the
cowpea undesirable color, taste, odor, and there were variations in the results
of the analysis. Dennettia tripetala extracted oil with 1.5 ml acetone was
found to be more effective in reducing the callosobruchus maculatus while
pepperfruit extracted with O.5m1 ethanol was found effective in inhibiting the multiplication
of 4 callosobruchus maculatus than others.. The result showed significant
differences in the p (P
