Conteúdo: | Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important crop as a source of basic protein for populations in tropical countries, generating profit after the processing and storage of grains. However, the attack of pests such as cowpea weevil Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae) can limit the production of cowpea, with the insect causing qualitative and quantitative losses to the grains. Its control is commonly performed with fumigant phosphine, which due to its almost exclusive use, has selected resistant populations of insects, causing control failure. This way, the present research aimed to investigate the effects of essential oils of Betula lenta, Cinnamomum cassia, Citrus aurantium var. Amara and Acorus calamus in the treatment of cowpea grains [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] under storage conditions, for the management of Callosobruchus maculatus.
