Extract: Neem (Azadirachta indica) 5:1, 25 gram
Neem Extract 5:1 (Azadirachta indica) , water soluable
The first indication that neem was being used as was about 4,500
years ago. This was the high point of the Indian Harappa culture,
one of the great civilizations of the ancient world. In these ancient
texts neem is mentioned in almost 100 entries for treating a wide range
of symptoms.
The Neem tree is acknowledged to be the most effective and
environmentally friendly source of pest inhibitors and pest control
agents.
The Neem Tree (Azadirachta indica A. juss) and its derivatives have
great relevance in organic farming practices. This remarkable tree has
been identified as a renewable resource for home grown agro-
chemicals and nutrients which are bio - degradable, non-toxic and
effective.
Long before synthetic chemicals and commercial insecticides and
fertilizers were available, Neem derivatives were used in Indian villages
to protect and nourish crops. Scientific research has shown that Neem
extracts can influence nearly 400 species of insects.
It is significant that some of these pests are resistant to pesticides, or
are inherently difficult to control with conventional pesticides. (floral
thrips, diamond back moth and several leaf miners). Most Neem
products belong to the category of medium to broad spectrum
pesticides, i.e., they are effective over a wide range of pests.
Using neem derivatives for managing pests is a non-violent approach to
controlling pests. Neem products work by intervening at several stages
of the insect's life. They may not kill the pest instantaneously but
incapacitate it in several ways. Neem very subtly employs effects such
as repellence, feeding and ovipositional deterrence, growth inhibition,
mating disruption, chemo-sterilization, etc. These are now considered
far more desirable than a quick knock-down in integrated pest
management programs as they reduce the risk of exposing pests'
natural enemies to poisoned food or starvation.
The action of Neem products fulfills all priorities among environmental
objectives. This unique tree is perhaps the most significant example of
how nature can combine diverse functions i.e., the action of de-oiled
Neem cake as a pesticide cum fertiliser.
Chemistry of Neem for Organic Farming:
Neem plants, as do all other plants, contain several thousands of
chemicals. Of special interest are terpenoids that are unique to Neem
and some related members of this family. More than a hundred
terpenoids are known from different parts of the Neem plant. Of its
biological constituents, the most active and well studied compound is
Azadirachtin. However in most traditional preparations of Neem as
pesticide or medicine, a mixture of Neem chemicals are present and
provide the active principles. Several different kinds of azadirachtin
(A-K) have been isolated, the most abundant of which is Azadirachtin-A.
