Welcome to Neem Tree Farms

A cornerstone of the Ayurvedic tradition, neem was known as sarva roga nivarin or "healer of all ailments" in prehistoric India. Today, in tropical regions around the world, neem is often called "the village pharmacy."

We started growing neem in 1992, based on the indirect advice of the federal government, after the National Research Council and National Academy Press published a book entitled "Neem: A Tree for Solving Global Problems." Fifteen years later, universities and laboratories from Bangalore to Baltimore continue to validate that vision with research on disorders ranging from AIDS and cancer to diabetes and ulcers.

We've been compiling that somewhat complex research into reports that are easier to understand and track through our own series entitled "Beyond 'Solving Global Problems,' " organizing the vast amount of work completed since the first book was published. Details on nearly all of that research are available in databases maintained by US government agencies. The National Institutes of Health's Library of Medicine -- the world's largest medical library - now has nearly 500 references to neem. Perhaps most importantly, ongoing research indicates that neem has few side effects when used as directed by adults who are not trying to conceive a child. Extension Toxicology Network documentation for using neem as a pesticide shows that it is "relatively non-toxic" and caused no significant problems even at the extraordinary high dosages fed to laboratory rats.
