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 . However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil considered to hold excellent promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to use these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, as well as to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
