Neem Powder is used as an organic fertilizer because of the various micro and macro nutrients which it is composed of. It will control soil-based pathogens as well as nematodes at the same time. It will also inhibit nitrification of the soil plus enhance the efficiency of nitrogen providing fertilizer.
Benefits:
- Enhances soil quality by increasing humus content, making it an ideal all-purpose organic soil conditioner, particularly beneficial for low-organic matter soils.
- Acts as a deterrent against nematodes, contributing to healthier plant growth.
- When used in conjunction with nitrogen-containing fertilizers like urea, Neem powder reduces the rate of nitrification, leading to a slow and prolonged release of nitrogen in the soil, fostering increased fertility.
- Neem powder supports the thriving of earthworms, preserving the vital components of the soil’s ecosystem.
