“…Several 50 kg ripe fruits of neem having 30 kg of seeds kernels provide 24 kg of seed cake. The use of neem cake @ 200 g m -2 with arbuscular mychorrhiza fungus was effective on increasing the plant height in okra, increased the phosphorous content in the field and was effective in controlling the root knot nematode in okra (Mohapatra et al, 2020). Similarly, Neem cake @ 1 kg per vine is reported to be efficient against nematode of black pepper (Sathyan et al, 2020).…”

Neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) is a member of Meliaceae family, a fast-growing tropical evergreen plant whose products were found effective against economically important insect pests and diseases. All parts of this plant particularly leaf, bark, and root extracts have the biopesticidal activities. Azadirachtin, a biopesticide obtained from neem extract, can be used for con-trolling various insect pests in agriculture. It acts on insects by repelling them, by inhibiting feeding, and by disrupting their growth, and reproduction. Neem-based formulations do not usually kill insects directly, but they can alter their behavior in significant ways to reduce pest damage to crops and reduce their reproductive potential. The neem is considered as an eas-ily accessible, eco-friendly, biodegradable, cheap, and non-toxic biopesticide which control the target pests. Thus, this re-view highlighted the extract, byproducts and roles of neem that can be used as potential biopesticide in agriculture.
