Latest Market Information September 11, 2025
Davana is a delicate annual herb that requires a cool, dry climate and well-drained, fertile soils to flourish. It is highly sensitive to climatic fluctuations, making it a challenging crop to cultivate. The plant is primarily grown in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu.
Distillation has concluded, though oil produced is marked by low davanone content. This has negatively impacted demand from quality conscious buyers. Untimely and excessive winter rain has heavily impacted davana oil production this season. The unfavourable weather caused widespread nursery failures and significantly reduced yields. Market interest has weakened as buyers hesitate to pay premium prices for substandard material. This has resulted in softening of prices despite the limited supply.
