Some world renowned authorities in the field of environmental conservation and eminent agricultural scientists got together to draw up a master-plan for better understanding and utilization of Neem. From these deliberations, the Neem Foundation was established in November 1993. The Foundation is supported by several eminent scientists, researchers and environmentalist.
The saga of Neem is based on a rationale once understood by our fathers – of a lifestyle in tune with nature, sadly neglected and nearly destroyed over the millennia.
