Abstract
<em>Neem seed is a potential material for biopesticides, due to its limnoid content in the oil-seed. One of the methods for extracting neem seed oil is using screw press. The study aimed to determine the financial feasibility of neem seed based-biopesticides production for industrial-scale using flow chart of production approach. The tools used in this research was the financial feasibility approach such as NPV, IRR, Payback Period and Profitability Index. The financial feasibility study showed that biopesticides production was obtained at NPV Rp 3,026,193,872.00, IRR 46.90 %, Payback Period at 2 years 1 month, and Profitability Index at 2.40. The result of financial feasibility indicated that the biopesticides production using a screw press method at an industrial scale was feasible to be done. Sensitivity analysis showed that fluctuation of raw material cost and price of biopesticides product, affected the feasibility of neem seed based-biopesticides production using screw press method. This feasibility study is expected to be used as an initial reference for developing the potential of neem seed as biopesticides.</em>
