01 Shift towards Bio-based Pesticides Bio-based pesticides are the ones that are less harmful to human health as well as the environment. Additionally, there are fewer chances of causing toxicity to fruits and crops as compared to synthetic products. So, the government bodies are also promoting the manufacturing as well as use of biopesticides. For example, the United States Department of Agriculture and the United States Environmental Protection Agency promote awareness amongst society to prefer biopesticides In addition to this, the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) supports research in bio-based pest management The awareness programs, research and development highlight preference to bio-based pesticides over synthetic ones. As neem oil is also a bio-based pesticide, this ongoing trend directs its demand in the agricultural sector.
02 Preferential Approach for Bio-based Skin Care Rising skin problems due to unhygienic conditions, environmental factors, and additionally, the side effects of synthetic skin care agents are redirecting manufacturers’ as well as people’s approach towards natural skin care products. Neem oil is one of the major components for acne treatment that provides a soothing and hydrating effect to the skin. For example, Lignopure GmbH raised USD 2.57 million for the utilisation of natural components in cosmetics Such updates on the regulatory landscape and investments by manufacturers in natural skin care products direct the market flow towards bio-based skin care products, and hence for neem oil as an effective component in skin and hair care.
