Neem Kernel Cake is the nutrient-rich, fibrous residue left after cold-pressing neem kernels to extract neem oil. Unlike ordinary neem seed cakes, this premium-grade product is derived only from dehulled kernels, resulting in higher Azadirachtin content, superior nutrient composition, and enhanced pesticidal efficacy.

It’s a dual-purpose organic input that improves soil health while providing natural protection against harmful pests—making it a preferred choice for sustainable agriculture, horticulture, and gardening.
The higher the kernel content, the greater the concentration of azadirachtin—a potent, naturally occurring compound that repels and disrupts insect life cycles. This makes Neem Kernel Cake not only more effective than seed-based cake but also richer in organic matter and soil nutrients.
