Probably no other plant yields as many varied products or has as many exploitable by-products. Indeed, as foreseen by some scientists, this tree may usher in a new era in pest control; provide millions with inexpensive medicines; cut the rate of population growth; and perhaps even reduce erosion, deforestation, and the excessive temperature of an overheated globe. On the other hand, although the enthusiasm may be justified, it is largely founded on exploratory investigations and empirical and anecdotal evidence. The purpose of this book is to marshal the various facts about this little-known species, to help illuminate its future promise, and to speed realization of its potential.NeemNeem productsNeem.Neem products.338.1/7497325National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Science and Technology for International Development.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910961933103321NEEM408902UNINA
