Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this project is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high productivity, as well as to establish methods of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to Jatropha will be built and appropriate varieties will be established. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
