Abstract: | Nematode numbers were assessed at 2-week intervals in a coastal savanna soil amended with neem leaves and animal manure for
12 weeks under fallow conditions. The number of plant-parasitic nematodes decreased significantly with the application of
the neem-based amendments, whereas the number of non-parasitic nematodes increased.
