Azadirachtin is a natural insecticidal compound derived from the seeds of the neem tree (Azadirachta indica). It is highly effective in disrupting the growth, development, and reproduction of insects, making it a popular bio-pesticide in organic agriculture. Azadirachtin acts by interfering with the hormonal systems of insects, inhibiting molting and feeding, ultimately leading to their death. Unlike synthetic pesticides, it has low toxicity to humans, animals, and beneficial insects, and is environmentally friendly. Due to its biodegradability and selective action, Azadirachtin is widely used for pest control in a variety of crops, providing a natural alternative to chemical pesticides.
