Abstract

Effect of Eucalyptus citriodora, Cupressus lucitanica and Tagetas minitiflora Powders in the Conservation of Maize (Zea mays) and Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in Conditions of Rethy (Democratic Republic of the Congo). A study on the effect of Eucalyptus citriodora, Cupressus lucitanica and Tagetas minitiflora powders, was made at Rethy (Democratic Republic of the Congo) in order to determine efficacy in the conservation of maize and bean. After 10 months, T. minitiflora was more efficacious with 0.19% of infestation for bean, and 2.59% for maize in comparison to the control sample which gave 0.9% for bean and 4.45% for maize.
