 abstract={The present study investigated the potential use of the nano-emulsion of Lippia multiflora Mold. essential oil in managing the cabbage pest ( Brassica oleracea L.) in two Ivorian areas (Yamoussoukro and Korhogo) during the wet seasons (April-September 2018). The nano- -emulsion was tested against cabbage diamondback moth ( Plutella xylostella), aphid ( Brevicoryne brassicae), webworm ( Hellula undalis), cutworm ( Spodoptera exigua) and whitefly ( Bemisia tabaci) under field conditions. The efficacy of essential oil emulsion was compared with the synthetic pesticide Karate 5 EC (Lambda cyhalothrin 52 g · l–1). The results indicated that the nano-emulsion of essential oil gave better control of the cabbage insect pest than the untreated plots. For all the insects studied, the nano-emulsion was very effective towards the species B. brassicae and P. xylostella for which the reduction of the mean population was respectively, 28.48 ± 0.2 and 0.6 ± 0.02 in Yamoussoukro and 0.0 and 7.11 ± 0.16 in Korhogo, compared to 45.32 ± 0.43 and 15.89 ± 0.23, respectively, for untreated plots. The yields of cabbage heads obtained in both areas Yamoussoukro and Korhogo were 4.7 and 15, respectively. The head damage percentages were 23.3% in Yamoussoukro and 26.7% in Korhogo when the fields were sprayed with nano-emulsion and were 13.3% and 28.3%, respectively, when the cabbages were treated with the synthetic pesticide. The formulation obtained here might be an interesting alternative for integrated pest management of cabbage.},
