It has been used for centuries in traditional agriculture due to its various beneficial properties. Insect Repellent: Neem oil contains compounds such as azadirachtin, which have insecticidal and repellent properties. It is effective against a wide range of pests, including aphids, whiteflies, mites, mealybugs, caterpillars, and beetles. Neem oil disrupts the growth and development of insect pests, inhibiting their feeding, reproduction, and metamorphosis. Organic Pest Control: Neem oil is commonly used as a component of organic pest control formulations and botanical insecticides. When diluted with water and applied as a foliar spray, it acts as a natural insecticide, repelling or killing pests while minimizing harm to beneficial insects and pollinators. Antifungal Properties: Neem oil exhibits antifungal activity against a variety of plant pathogens, including powdery mildew, rust, black spot, leaf spot, and damping-off diseases. It helps to suppress fungal growth and spore germination, reducing the incidence and severity of fungal infections on plants. Nematode Management: Neem oil is effective against soil-borne nematodes, which can damage plant roots and reduce crop yields. It disrupts the life cycle of nematodes, inhibiting their reproduction and reducing their populations in the soil. Neem oil can be applied as a soil drench or incorporated into potting mixtures to control nematode infestations. Plant Protection: Neem oil can be applied as a protective coating on plants to deter feeding by browsing animals such as deer, rabbits, and rodents. It has a bitter taste and unpleasant odor that repels herbivores, preventing them from damaging crops and ornamental plants.
