Answer
Approximately one third of world’s agricultural food stuffs get destroyed by more than 20,000 species of field and storage pests and diseases (McEwen, 1978). To prevent this loss, large amounts of synthetic pesticides are applied, out of which only 0.1% reaches the target pests and more than 99% contaminates the ecosystem (Sateesh, 1998). In addition, synthetic agrochemical usage has resulted in development of resistant pests and pathogens. Cost-effective, non toxic, biodegradable, eco-friendly and botanical soft-agro chemicals are the need of present day agriculture as an alternative to hazardous and recalcitrant synthetic chemicals (Sateesh, 1998). Neem tops the list of 2,400 plant species that are reported to have antimicrobial properties and is regarded as the most reliable source of eco-friendly agrochemical property.
