Efficacy test of Thai neem extracts in different forms; neem seed extract (NSE), neem fruit extract (NFE), the mixture of NSE+NFE and neem oil (NO) from KU Pilot plant on whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) was conducted in laboratory and field condition. The results were : Contact poision study : the mixture of NSE+NFE (aza 0.295 percent) and No showed the highest efficacy on egg mortality resulting in lower LC50 = 0.2 and 0.27 percent, respectively. The lower efficacy was NFE (aza 0.09 percent) and NSE (aza 0.5 percent) by LC50 = 0.68 and 0.82 percent, respectively. In the same result the mixture of NSE+NFE and NO caused high larval mortality showing LC50 = 0.25 and 0.1 percent, respectively. The lower efficacy was NFE and NSE by LC50 = 0.72 and 1.02 percent, respectively. For the next testing on adult, NSE+NFE, NO and NSE caused the similarily effective by LC50 = 0.15, 0.18 and 0.16 percent, respectively, followed by NFE with LC50 = 0.52 percent Stomach poison study : All four neem formulations showed the high efficacy causing death rate of whitefly adult between 80-100 percent Antioviposition effect : NSE, NSE+NFE and neem oil caused the almost similarity in being the oviposition deterrence of the whitefly. The average number of egg-laying in all test material was 4.5, 5.0, 6.5 and 10.0 comparing with untreated control as 17.8, respectively. For field experiment, it has been found that NSE, NSE+NFE and neem oil could reduce the amount of whitefly adult as that of synthetic insecticide, carbosulfan with no statistical difference.
