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 on bioenergy. However, the nation has an of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to make use of these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high efficiency, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information associating with Jatropha will be built and appropriate ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with regard to environment change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
