Modern application of Neem includes its use as a
bio-pesticide, nitrification in inihibitar for bio-fertilizer (neem coated
urea) and also as a variety of health care products like soap, toothpaste,
lotion and creams as well as application in medicinal use. It is estimated
that more than 50% of neem seeds produced are not collected for commercial
exploitation. There is also lack information/guidance on correct
post-harvest management. A need was felt to provide support services for
organised seed collection, post harvest processing, extraction of neem oil
etc. A centre on neem and neem products development has been established at
Jhalawar with the following aims and objectives: |
