What is neem oil used for in agriculture?

Neem oil for plants is widely recognized for its insecticidal properties. For this reason, it has been used since ancient times as a natural remedy for the protection of agricultural crops to avoid the use of chemical pesticides.

Its effectiveness in fighting plant-harming insects is well known and features a multifaceted approach. First, it acts as a repellent by keeping insects away from the treated area, thereby reducing infestations. Thanks to its compounds, it also acts as a growth and metamorphosis inhibitor, interfering with the hormonal system of insects, slowing their development, and preventing them from maturing, thus limiting their ability to reproduce.

It also has a repellent and anti-feeding effect because insects tend not to feed on treated plants, as the oil can interfere with their digestive system, making the plants less appetizing.

One of the advantages of its use as an insecticide is its organic nature, making it a completely biodegradable product with a low environmental impact.
