The document summarizes a study that investigated the effect of neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf extracts on the growth of Fusarium spp, a fungus that causes rot in stored kola nuts. Aqueous and ethanolic extracts of neem leaves at concentrations of 5-25% were tested against Fusarium spp in vitro. Both extracts significantly inhibited the radial growth of the fungus, with 20-25% concentrations exhibiting the highest inhibition of 82%. The ethanolic extracts showed greater inhibition at lower concentrations compared to aqueous extracts. This suggests that neem leaf extracts have potential as natural antifungal agents to help control rot fungus and extend the storage life of kola nuts.
