The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the cookie, cracker, pasta, and tortilla manufacturing markets in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and has spread globally, including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Food and beverage manufacturers depend on the supply of raw materials from domestic and international suppliers. As many governments restricted the movement of goods across countries and locally, manufacturers had to halt production due to a lack of raw materials. Also, restrictions on the trade of non-essential goods and fear of contamination through manufacturing facilities contributed to the decline. The outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the cookie, cracker, pasta, and tortilla manufacturing markets will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a "black swan" event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. Companies manufacturing cookies, crackers, pasta, and tortillas are increasingly using NIR analyzer technology for moisture analysis of the product.

The flour used in manufacturing can vary considerably in its protein quality, protein quantity, moisture, enzymatic activity, color, and physical properties when obtained from different sources. The Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) method estimates the moisture content of flour and regulates it to an optimal level set by an operator.
