Summary:A novel insecticide and foliar fungicide derived from a neem seed extract comprising neem oil which is substantially free of azadirachtin and salannin, said neem oil being prepared by extracting dried, coarsely ground neem seeds with a non-polar, hydrophobic solvent to obtain a neem oil extract, and then removing the solvent to obtain the neem oil. These neem oil pesticides exhibit the ability to repel insects from plant surfaces, prevent fungal growth, and kill insect and fungal pests at various life stages.
