Crops in Botswana grow gradually 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 stand up to dryness and winter cold. It likewise has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold great guarantee as a . The goal of this task is to make use of these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high efficiency, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological method will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data relating to jatropha curcas will be constructed and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this desert that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
