Global farnesene market size is forecast to register USD 485.0 million by 2023. In EU, the RED (Renewable Energy Directive) has set 10% target for use of renewable energy in transport. In the U.S., key initiatives, CAAFI (Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative) and MASBI (Midwest Aviation Sustainable Biofuels Initiatives) are formed to promote biofuel usage in aviation sector.

Cosmetic & personal care application dominated the demand and accounted for over 35% of the total demand in 2015. Farnesene derived squalene, through biotechnological route, is used as a useful ingredient in anti-ageing and moisturizing cream formulations.

Strong cosmetics growth expected from Europe and Asia Pacific market may promote farnesene demand and boost squalene market size. Cosmetics companies are shifting focus to use ingredients derived from vegetable or biotechnological route instead of animal sources owing to consumer perception, which may promote market growth.

Hydrogenated Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) and FT (Fischer-Tropsch) based on biomass are alternative biofuels considered to be used in aviation sector, proves to be a major challenge for market growth. Variation in key feedstock harvest, sugarcane, owing to unfavorable weather conditions may affect farnesene market price trend.
