Azadirachtin 0.03%, 0.15%, 1% & 5%
Azadirachtin is a chemical compound belonging to the limonoids. It is a secondary metabolite present in the neem tree seeds. It was found to affect over 200 species of insect, by acting mainly as an antifeedant and growth disruptor, and as such it possesses considerable toxicity toward insects (LD50(S. littoralis): 15 ug/g). It is a wonderful natural insecticide which is biodegradable (it degrades within 100 hours when exposed to light and water) and shows very low or no toxicity to mammals.
We offer 300ppm,1500ppm, 10,000 ppm azadirachtin based neem oil formulation to be used as a botanical insecticide for organic farming; it repels a wide variety of pests including the mealy bug, beet armyworm, aphids, the cabbage worm, thrips, whiteflies, mites, fungas gnats, beetles, moth larvae, mushroom flies, leafminers, caterpillars, locust, nematodes and Japanese beetle. Not known to be harmful for non-target organisms.
