Its application in pharmaceutical products is increasing due to its antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antimicrobial characteristics.

Worldwide lockdown due to the outbreak of COVID-19 has affected the farming practices, which has highly impacted the supply of the raw materials required to extract essential oils. This has led to the increased prices of raw materials for the manufacturers of lavender extracts. Moreover, the COVID-19 impact on logistics is also expected to contribute to the increased prices of raw materials. With barriers in the cross-border transportation of commodities in this pandemic situation,the manufacturers are highly dependent on local raw material suppliers, which increases the bargaining power of the suppliers. Thus, the increased raw material prices would lead to an increased price of lavender extracts in the next couple of years.
