📝 Book Summary:
"Where neem and nishinda grow, death does not follow." This ancient proverb highlights the indispensable role of neem in human life. Neem has been valued in India for centuries as a powerful natural remedy for various ailments. Excavations from the Indus Valley Civilization, including Mohenjo-Daro, have even revealed neem fossils, proving its historical significance.

Modern scientific research on neem has uncovered astonishing results. This remarkable tree contains numerous plant-based chemical compounds (phytochemicals) that provide herbal solutions to over a hundred diseases, including some life-threatening conditions.

Neem is now widely used in organic farming as a natural pesticide and fungicide. The residue left after oil extraction from neem seeds enriches soil fertility and prevents land erosion.

In Samadhane Nim, author Subimal Chandra Dey provides practical guidelines on incorporating neem into daily life, alongside essential information on its medicinal, agricultural, and environmental benefits.
