  2. Exchange of information and knowledge of Neem should be undertaken through cross-country visits of Experts.
  3. In order to focus on Neem for Sustainable Development, a Neem Technology Mission should be constituted by, Planning Commission, Government of India.
  4. Ministry of SSI & Ministry of ARI, should establish Technology Support Centers for Neem in collaboration with State Governments, KVIC and Voluntary Agencies in rural areas where Neem Resources are plentiful, for developing Neem-based industry clusters.
  5. Respective departments of Government of India should provide policy and fiscal support for existing and promising Neem Technologies for example excise and sales tax exemption for Neem based plant protection products, clearance for manufacture and sale of Neem Coated Urea and so on.
  6. States with major population of Neem trees take steps to increase neem seed collection and establish demonstration centers for primary processing of seeds and fruits. In this context NOVOD Board, Government of India should be entrusted with mandate for increase in processing of good quality Neem seeds and oil.
  7. The Agriculture extension network should be sensitized to promote organic farming – especially of vegetables & fruits, which would eventually lead to increased usage of Neem products.
  8. In order to have focused development of sound technologies, respective departments should establish nodal institutes in identified areas. The possibility of upgrading the existing Neem Technology Center into nodal National Center should be examined.
