Neem cake is the de-oiled residue that can be used after Neem kernels are crushed for their oil. In this seed kernel are nutrients like NPK ((nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium) as well as nortriterpenoids and isoprenoids. These nutrients are nematicidal in nature so the seed cake ends up with these properties. Neem cake is used in agriculture, horticulture, floriculture and the turf industry as an organic fertilizer. Neem cake is used as an organic fertilizer because of the various micro and macro nutrients which it is composed of. It will control, at the same time, soil based pathogens. It will also inhibit nitrification of the soil plus enhance the efficiency of nitrogen providing fertilizer. The mustard cake is obtained from mustard seeds after extracting the oil from the seeds. Mustard cakes provide all the essential elements for plant growth such as nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. 100% natural liquid fertilizer can be made from the cakes by soaking them in water for 24 hours and then adding that water to the soil. Please ensure that you do not add the fertilizer directly into the roots but around the seeds."
