| Résumé : |
This publication reviews the status and prospects of pest control using neem in rice-based cropping system in developing countries with special emphasis on its potential and limitations in IPM programs. The ultimate value of any control method in IPM is how much the method contributes to increased farmer profit and sustained crop production and protects health and the environment. Another requirement is the reliability of the method in achieving acceptable pest control.
To some, neem and other botanical pest control products are the ideal arsenal against pests because they are occurring and are renewable –appealing features in a world of diminishing natural resources. However, just because they are natural botanical products is no guarantee that they are always safe to the environment and nontarget organisms. Results reported in this publication show that neem affects some nontarget organisms but does not affect others. With today’s concerns about the effects of agricultural development on biodiversity, we need to be alert for potentially harmful effects of pest control products on nontarget organisms.
