If not a great deal is ever publicly spoken in Guyana about the application of Neem as a pest control agent in the agricultural sector, the opposite may now be the case in Ghana where one of the country’s experts on crop protection is apparently getting attention with his recommendation that Neem Oil be applied as an organic pest control agent in the country’s agricultural sector.

Stabroek Business has seen a November 23 report originating in Accra, regarding the recommendation by Emile Aman, an expert on crop protection that neem seed power be used as a pesticide repellant. “The neem oil insecticide is often a great solution if insects or mites bother your plants…….. and it is very healthy for crops,”  Aman is quoted as saying at a neem Processing Factory in Ghana.
