Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to make use of these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, in addition to to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological method will help to accomplish a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be built and ideal ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to environment modification. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
