The concentration and activity of water in Azadirachta indica describes the shelf life of Neem. The physical and chemical properties of many biological materials depends on the level of water content, which affects the maturity of the fruits and vegetables. Biospeckle technique is a tool used for contrast analysis and hence distinguishes the water activities at different stages in shelf-life of the specimen. Decomposing condition of Azadirachta indica is evaluated by Time History of Speckle Pattern (THSP) during different stages with histogram analysis and fractal box counting methods.
