Neem oil is a type of vegetable oil extracted from the fruits and seeds of the neem tree (Azadirachtaindica), a fast-growing evergreen tree that is native to the Indian subcontinent. With a large variety of different uses, neem oil is an extremely versatile substance that carries beneficial medicinal, cosmetic and gardening uses.

The first two categories listed above are extracts - hydrophobic and azadirachtin. These extracts are produced when neem oil has been processed. The disadvantage of processing is that the neem oil will lose many of its valuable biochemical compounds in the process.
Harris Neem Oil is 100% Cold Pressed and retains all of the essential nutrients contained in the original neem seed. It's more expensive, but it's worth it.
