Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The goal of this project is to utilize these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high productivity, as well as to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological technique will help to accomplish a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to Jatropha will be built and appropriate ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this arid area that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is with regard to environment change. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
