Protege contra más de 200 insectos diferentes

Los agricultores mexicanos y haitianos, así como los pastores en Australia han comenzado a usar la simple pulverización de neem en lugar de los métodos convencionales de control de plagas.

Medio ambiente

Los insecticidas, fungicidas y bio-pesticidas naturales de Neem tienen muchas ventajas. Los estudios de investigación indican que no son perjudiciales para los humanos o los animales. Las plagas no desarrollarán resistencia durante generaciones mientras que los insectos beneficiosos como las mariposas, las mariquitas, etc. se salvan. El suelo se enriquece, y los extractos del neem no dejan ningún residuo en el ambiente.

El carácter “blando” del pesticida de Neem mejora las vidas de los agricultores empobrecidos con la gama tropical del árbol de Neem. Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, el uso indebido o excesivo de pesticidas químicos lleva a la intoxicación de alrededor de 500.000 personas provocando alrededor de un millón de enfermedades y cerca de 20.000 muertes sólo en el tercer mundo. La sustitución de costosos controles químicos por extractos crudos de Neem ahorra dinero y vidas. En los países en desarrollo, la mayoría de los ingresos de los agricultores se gastan en productos químicos de protección de cultivos. Esto se convierte en un círculo vicioso de deuda continua y por lo tanto de pobreza, mala salud y degradación del medio ambiente.


Medio ambiente

Para romper este ciclo y mejorar la vida de los agricultores, agencias como CARE, AID y AFGRO están promoviendo activamente la introducción y el uso de Neem en el sudeste asiático, África, el Caribe, América del sur y Centroamérica. Se enseña a los agricultores los medios y métodos para hacer fácilmente un producto barato, seguro y eficaz que protege sus cultivos de más de 200 diferentes plagas de insectos.

Los agricultores de México y Haití y los pastores de Australia han empezado a cambiar los habituales controles químicos sintéticos de plagas por simples aerosoles a base de Neem. Esto ha permitido a los agricultores exportar mangos y otras frutas a Estados Unidos sin los residuos químicos que a menudo detenían sus cargamentos en los puestos de inspección. Los aerosoles a base de Neem también han permitido a los pastores en Australia producir lana libre de pesticidas que se vende a compradores europeos por una prima considerable sobre la lana estándar impregnada con pesticidas químicos. Los extractos de Neem han sido aprobados por la Agencia de protección ambiental de los Estados Unidos para su uso en cultivos alimentarios. Y actualmente cada vez más agencias gubernamentales aprueban el uso del neem en los cultivos alimentarios.

Protège contre plus de 200 insectes différents

Les agriculteurs mexicains et haïtiens, ainsi que les bergers en Australie ont commencé à utiliser de simple pulvérisation de Neem à la place des méthodes classiques de lutte antiparasitaire.

Environnement

Les insecticides, fongicides et bio-pesticides naturels à base de Neem ont de nombreux avantages.

Des recherches ont indiqué qu’ils sont inoffensifs pour l’homme et les animaux. Les nuisibles ne peuvent développer une résistance au Neem au cours des générations, tandis que les insectes bénéfiques à l’agriculture tels que les papillons, coccinelles et autres sont épargnés. Le sol est enrichit, et les extraits de Neem ne laissent aucuns résidues dans l’environnement.

Selon l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé (OMS), l’utilisation abusive ou excessive de pesticides chimiques a pour effet d’empoisonner environ 500000 personnes, causant environ 1 million de maladies et environ 20000 décès, rien que dans le tiers monde.

S’abstenir des produits chimiques et coûteux pour utiliser les différents produits à base de Neem permet de sauver non seulement de l’argent, mais aussi des vies. Dans les pays en développement, les revenus des agriculteurs sont principalement consacrés aux produits chimiques pour la protection de leurs cultures. Cela crée un cercle vicieux de dette persistante et donc de pauvreté, de problèmes de santé et de dégradation de l’environnement.


Environnement

Pour briser ce cercle vicieux et pour améliorer la vie des agriculteurs, des organismes tels que CARE, AID et AFGRO conseillent l’utilisation du Neem en Asie de l’Est, Afrique, Caraïbes et Amérique du Sud et centrale. Les agriculteurs sont ainsi informés des moyens et méthodes permettant de fabriquer facilement un produit bon marché, sûr et efficace qui protège leurs cultures de plus de 200 insectes nuisibles différents.

Cela a permis aux agriculteurs d’exporter mangues et autres fruits aux Etats-Unis, sans les résidus chimiques qui posaient souvent problèmes aux inspections. Les sprays à base de Neem ont également permis aux bergers en Australie de produire de la laine sans pesticide qui est vendue à des acheteurs européens, moyennant une prime considérable par rapport à la laine standard imprégnée de pesticides chimiques. De nos jours, de plus en plus d’agences gouvernementales approuvent l’usage du Neem: le Neem a été approuvé par l’Agence de protection environnemental des Etats-Unis pour son usage dans les cultures.

Neem, the safest medicinal herb effective against a number of diseases.

Neem in Skin Care

Neem seed oil has been very effectively used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine to assist in the healing of topical skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis, rashes, acne, dry skin problems, burns and abrasions. It is also rich in fatty acids and glycerides, and together with its healing properties, provides an excellent natural moisturizing base for skin care formulations. Neem seed oil and leaf extracts may be the wonder cure for psoriasis. It relieves the itching and pain while reducing the scale and redness of the patchy lesions. Neem oil is an excellent skin moisturizer while DEET is not recommended for repeated application to the skin, around the face or on the hands of small children. Neem quickly kills external parasites and a neem decoction is safer than and just as effective as standard treatments for head lice and scabies. Soap/Shampoo – Neem oil soaps can be used to treat a variety of illnesses and ailments. Neem oil can be added to regular shampoo for controlling itchy scalp and dandruff.

For pets, neem oil can be added to pet shampoo to kill ticks and fleas or the area where the pets usually use can be treated with neem oil spray. This completely safer than the commercial products and other treatement like malathion which happens to be toxic to the pet when atleast some quantity is absorbed by the skin or when the pet tries to lick the chemical.

Nature’s tooth brush !

Using neem twigs as toothbrushes is an age old practice in India

Neem in Dental care

The use of neem for dental is an age-old practice in south India. Even the best toothbrush and the best tooth paste cannot replace the neem tender branches. These branches contain fine fibres that cleans the tooth while its antibiotic extracts are released constantly during brushing thereby preventing tooth decay and periodontal diseases.

Neem in birth control

Neem in birth control
Used as a vaginal lubricant, neem oil was up to 100 percent effective in preventing pregnancy. In India and the United States, trials show neem extracts reduced fertility in male monkeys without inhibiting libido or sperm production, making it potentially the first male birth control pill. So Neem should not be taken by anyone who is pregnant or trying to conceive (male or female).

Can neem products be taken internally ?

Neem also contains compounds similar to aspirin and should not be used to treat children with fevers and patients banned from taking aspirin. While people in some countries take neem oil internally, it is not generally recommended for taking Neem oil internally without proper medical guide.

Neem in social insect control

Neem in social insect control
For those seeking a safe alternative to potentially dangerous synthetic repellents neem offers an attractive alternative. One compound (salannin) found in neem leaves, seeds and seed oil is a safer but more effective insect repellent than the widely used chemical ingredient called DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide) currently found in most commercial repellents. This is a suspected carcinogen with long periods of use. Because of neem’s proven effectiveness insect repellents made with neem are being used in malaria prone tropical countries. Neem extracts tested by the Malaria Institute were found to repel the mosquito that causes malaria for up to twelve hours. An active ingredient in neem leaves, called irodin A, is toxic to resistant strains of malaria. In vitro studies show 100 percent mortality in 72 hours with a 1:20,000 ratio. Neem provides protection from not only mosquitoes but also from biting flies, sand fleas and ticks.

Protects from over 200 different insect pests

Farmers in Mexico and Haiti and shepherds in Australia have begun switching to simple neem-based sprays from the usual synthetic chemical pest controls.

Environment

The natural insecticides, fungicides and bio-pesticides made out of neem have many advantages. Research studies indicate that they are not harmful to humans or animals. The pests will not develop resistance over generations while the beneficial insects like butterflies, ladybugs, etc are spared. The soil is enriched, and neem extracts leave no residue in the environment. Neem’s “soft” pesticide character improves the lives of impoverished farmers throughout the tropical range of the neem tree.

According to the World Health Organization, misuse or overuse of chemical pesticides result in poisoning of about 500,000 people resulting about a million illnesses and about 20,000 deaths in the Third World alone. Substituting crude neem extracts for expensive chemical controls saves both money and lives. In developing countries, most of the earnings of farmers are spent on crop protection chemicals. These results in a vicious cycle of continued debt and thereby the poverty, ill health and environmental degradation.


Environment

To break this cycle and to improve the farmer’s lives, agencies such as CARE, AID and AFGRO are actively promoting the introduction and use of neem in Southeast Asia, Africa, the Caribbean and both South and Central America. The farmers are educated about the means and methods for easily making a cheap, safe and effective product that protects their crops from over 200 different insect pests. Farmers in Mexico and Haiti and shepherds in Australia have begun switching to simple neem-based sprays from the usual synthetic chemical pest controls.

This has allowed the farmers to export mangos and other fruit to the United States without the chemical residues that often stopped their shipments at inspection stations. Neem-based sprays have similarly allowed the shepherds in Australia to produce pesticide-free wool that is being sold to European buyers for a considerable premium over the standard wool impregnated with chemical pesticides. Neem extracts have been approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for use on food crops. And today more and more of the governmental agencies approve the usage of neem on food crops.
