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 on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It likewise has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold terrific as a biofuel. The goal 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 deal high efficiency, as well as to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological method will help to accomplish a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this arid region that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with regard to climate modification. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
