Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, in addition to to establish techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a model based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information connecting to jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this dry region that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with regard to environment modification. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
