Description The insecticidal properties of plants have been known through the ages. In recent years botanical
insecticides have played a critical role in the management of several insect pests. However, they have
not been fully exploited on a commercial scale. Neem (Azadirachta indica) has been the focus of
studies for over 20 years, and neem products are used as pesticides and allied chemicals against
>250 insect species all over the world.
