NEEMATE 10 GA novel granular pesticide of botanical origin used for the control of soil borne pests including nematodes. It is recommended for soil application. The active ingredients include a careful blend of Neem seed constituents collectively called " Neem bitters " They are coated or absorbed on to a selective carrier material of agricultural origin so that persistency and stability of the active compound are enhanced in this medium. The mode of action is both systemic and contact type.Being a granulated bio pesticide , the formulation has the following advantages : Ready to use , no mixing.  Drift hazard is low because particles settle quickly. No Spray , little dust ; means low hazard to application. Totally bio degradable  Slow release for prolonged action Can be used as IPM component. Widely recommended as soil insecticide to control white grub , wire worm , nematode and other soil borne insects.ACTIVE INGREDIENTS :Azadirachtin : Azadirachtin and other Neem based triterpenoids.‘NEEMATE 10 G’ is a neem based nematicide which can be used to control root-knot nematodes affecting fruit crops like bannana , vegetables crop like Tomato or field crop like Chick pea.Chemical pesticide , carbofuran , is widely used to control nematodes. However , Carbofuran has been banned in many countries because of its adverse effect on environment and inherent toxicity. The enclosed field data conducted at Gujarat Agricultural University , Derol Station (1994-96) show that Nico Neem 10 G is as effective as carbofuran. However, being a botanical pesticides it is free from those defects.Comparative Bioefficacy of NEEMATE 10 G & Carbofuran for control of root-knot nematode in Chick pea( 3 year's mean)-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Treatment Root Knot Index (RKI)* Yield (Kg./ha.)-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NEEMATE -10 G (1Kga.i./ha) 2.25 3237Carbofuran-3G ( 1Kg q.i./ha) 2.61 2977Control 3.28 2774-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------* 1 = Free 5 = Maximum disease intensityIt is essential to apply ‘NEEMATE10 G’ before pests attack the crop. This prophylactic action results in built-in protection of the crop for abundant harvest.Dose :  Apply 1 Kg for nursery pest meant for 1 ha of field crop. Apply 15-20 days after sowing as a prophylatic dose. Appy to the soil at the rate of 10Kg/ha in field crop. Prophylactic application should be made 15-20 days after transplanting.
