Food problem is a global issue, today humanity is facing. To solve food problems farmers, use chemical pesticides to kill pests and increase crop yield. Overuse of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has led to severe environmental problems and health risks. So this research addresses the urgent need to develop sustainable alternative. One of the most effective methods for controlling these pests in an environmentally responsible way is the use of bio pesticides. The research objective is to promote environmental sustainability and food security by developing and using Neem base bio pesticide that reduce the reliance on synthetic pesticides. The methodology involves the usage of boiling method for bio pesticide formulation and hand-held spray used to spray on plants, and Microsoft excels for the analysis of results. The degree of coordination between the period of administration, aphid activity, crop variety, and environmental factors all affected the efficacy of neem insecticide against aphids. The study found that 95% of the pests could be eliminated with these solutions. This study concluded that as an alternative to the most widely advised chemical pesticide, neem pesticide appears to be a potential botanical option, according to the study.
