3 Outline of Presentation Botanicaks Advantages of use of botanicals Botanicals in West Africa Neem, origin, uses and mode of action Neem for Control of Vegetable pests Neem for stored product protection Challenges Research needs and Conclusion Biopesticide workshop, Accra, March 21, 2012
4 Botanicals Botanicals are plant-derived compounds with different modes of action The Use of plant materials against pests of field and stored products by Resource-poor farmers in different countries in Asia and Africa is an ancient practice Many of these plants are widely used in traditional medicine by local communities for the treatment of several ailments
5 Advantages of Botanicals Break down rapidly to harmless metabolites and appear less likely to build up genetic resistance in insect species No toxic residues in food They are less harmful to mammals and other beneficial organisms Broad spectrum in activity & act in different ways under different circumstances Could be used reliably and safely to treat grains stored in small quantities at the farm level
6 Examples of Botanicals Rotenone is obtained from Derris and Lonchocarpus species common in East Africa and China where the roots have been used as fish poison. Pyrethrum has been produced commercially for more than 150 years. Over 90% of the world s production coming from Kenya, Tanzania, Ecuador, Rwanda and Japan A preparation containing 70% β -asarone, is marketed by Alrich of Germany Carvone--a monoterpene from essential oil of Carum carvi with the trade name TALENT inhibit the sprouting of potatoes during storage

58 Challenges to the practical utilization of botanicals Low appreciation of the efficacy of botanicals for pest control Doubts as to the effectiveness of plant-derived products (both home-made and commercial products) due to their slow action and lack of rapid knock-down effect Genetic variability of plant species in different localities Difficulty of registration and patenting of natural products and lack of standardization of botanical pesticide products
59 Challenges to the practical utilization of botanicals Seasonal supply of seeds, and change in potency with location and time Handling difficulties as there is no method for mechanizing the process of collecting, storing or handling the seeds from some of the perennial trees Instability of the active ingredients when exposed to direct sunlight Competition with synthetic pesticides through aggressive advertising Commercial formulated botanicals are more expensive than synthetic insecticides and are not as widely available
60 Challenges to the practical utilization of botanicals Possible health hazards when neem seeds are infected with the fungus Aspergillus flavus which produces aflatoxins, which is one of the most potent carcinogens known in the world Rapid degradation, although desirable in some respects, creates the need for more precise timing or more frequent applications. Data on the effectiveness and long-term (chronic) mammalian toxicity are unavailable for some botanicals, and tolerances for some have not been established.
61 Research & Training Needs There is often an erroneous assumption that plant compounds because of their natural source are innately safer Some botanicals such as nicotine are as toxic to mammals as some synthetic pesticides A largely neglected area has been the safety of botanicals from the point of environmental contamination
62 Research & Training Needs Residual effects of plant materials over a longer duration period of 6-12 months or more against key insect species needs to be determined Toxicity of the materials to non-target organisms Local availability of appropriate extraction and application techniques
63 Research & Training Needs Of important research priority is well designed onfarm trials to validate the efficacy of plant materials under real farm conditions. Agricultural Extension Officers must be trained in the practical utilization of plant materials to enable them transfer the technology to farmers. Develop appropriate infrastructure at the community level for the introduction of plant materials for pest control
64 Research & Training Needs Botanical pesticide research is undertaken to find solutions to economic problems. Research efforts should therefore not focus only on their efficacy but also cost implications relating to processing, storage, extraction, formulation, product stability and application.
65 Conclusion Calneem oil & neem seed extracte were effective against the major pests of okra, tomato, cabbage and cucumber and less harmful to the beneficial organisms than synthetic insecticides and significantly increased the yield of the vegetables IPM projects should therefore stress --farmer empowerment --practical field training --institutional changes and policy issues The Neem Industry must be developed into a viable economic venture for employment generation and poverty alleviation in Ghana
66 Conclusion The potential for the use of neem products in crop production is extremely high Farmers need to be educated on the economic and environmental benefits of neem products Accurate economic evaluation of the sustainability of their usage for the management of crop pests need urgent attention Governments and development agencies should encourage and promote the preparation and adoption of neem products by resource poor and medium to largescale farmers to protect their crops against insect pest infestation
67 Conclusion Donor agencies must support research projects which pursue optimal methods and safety standards of using botanicals at the farm for grain protection

70 There is no single intervention that can establish to advance innovation, technology, economic growth and prosperity. And it is my hope, however, that we can strive to create prosperity and wealth from this rich knowledge of Neem with realistic expectations for the future. We can all be wealthy and healthy by efficient utilization of Neem knowledge.. But most important, is that we need to learn to work together Holistically forgetting our individual differences TRAINING WORKSHOP FOR PESTICIDE INSPECTORS AT GLAMOSSAY HOTEL, SUNYANI
