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 bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold excellent guarantee 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 offer high efficiency, in addition to to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will help to attain a society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data relating to Jatropha will be constructed and suitable ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this dry region that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to environment change. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
