Ha Noi (VNA) – The Viet Nam Pesticide Company (VIPESCO) has successfully developed pesticides from the seeds of the Neem tree originally from India. The pesticides, 1500 EC and 5,000 EC, can kill various kinds of worms, fungi and pests which harm rice and other crops. They are believed not to be harmful to the environment. The VIPESCO said that the two pesticides are especially suitable for integrated pest management. To ensure sufficient materials for production, the company plans to import Neem seeds from several regional countries.-Enditem
