Cannabis Extraction Market

Cannabis Extraction Market: Overview

The market size for cannabis extraction was USD 2,582.4 million in 2021, and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 20.3 percent during the forecast period. The sector is expanding due to rising demand for cannabis extracts, such as oils and tinctures, and the greater legalization of marijuana to treat many chronic conditions, such as cancer, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, and anxiety. Due to a deeper understanding of its many medical advantages, the cannabis market is booming.

People now choose to purchase medicinal cannabis lawfully, which has led to a decline in the illegal market in several nations where it has been decriminalized and legalized. Tinctures and oil can be used to create topical and edible products in addition to smoking. These are widely regarded in treating illnesses like motion sickness, cancer, mental disease and leisure activities like vaping. The rules governing medicinal marijuana extracts are much more lenient than those governing dried buds, which include smoking in terms of legality, facilitating the industry's expansion. The market for cannabis extract is expected to expand due to the increased incidence of chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, and others. In 2022, the American Cancer Society predicts that roughly 1.9 million new cancer cases will be identified in the country.

Additionally, the World Health Organization (WHO) predicts that 2.5% of the world's population smokes cannabis annually, increasing the demand for CBD. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, 62% of the world's population suffers from chronic diseases, and CBD extract is used to treat them (NCBI). However, depression is a prevalent mental illness. Around 5.0% of adults worldwide are thought to experience depression. The leading cause of disability in the world, depression, adds greatly to the disease burden.

The market is anticipated to grow faster due to the increased frequency of chronic diseases and studies showing cannabis extracts' beneficial benefits in certain conditions. However, a lack of knowledge and comprehension about the multiple advantages in developing nations and a robust regulatory presence regulating CBD usage impede the global industry.
