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.

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 withstand dryness and winter cold. It likewise has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to use these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high productivity, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological method will assist 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 associating with jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties 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 flexible with respect to environment change. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
