- W2184863399 abstract "The preservation of groundnut (Arachis hypogeal L) using three species of chilli pepper (Capsicum spp) against storage pests of groundnut was investigated among the Tiv speaking people of North Central Nigeria. Experiments were set up using Completely Randomized Design (CRD) where mean weight losses of groundnut were analysed using Fishers Least Significant Difference (FLSD). The three species of pepper treatments showed varying degrees of efficacy in the storage of groundnut against stored groundnut pests. Groundnut treated with moderately hot pepper (Capsicum frutesecen) recorded the least loss in weight to the insect pest of groundnut during the 12 weeks of the experiment with mean value of 16.16g, followed by groundnut treated with very hot pepper (Capsicum chinense) with a loss of 22.58g. Groundnut treated with sweet pepper (Capsicum annum) had the highest value with mean weight loss of 31.8g. Based on this finding, all the three species of chilli pepper are potent preservatives for the storage of groundnut seeds against its pests (Caryedon serratus and Tribolium castaneum) though the moderately hot species of pepper is the most effective of the three. This natural and cheap biological method of seed preservation may help reduce or eradicate groundnut seed damage by insects without itself being reduced in quality. Therefore, it shall help the farmers preserve their seeds all year round while retaining their viability. K e y w o r d s Groundnut, Pepper, Pest, Storage, Preservation, Viability" @default.
