Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to make use of these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high productivity, along with to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique 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 associating with jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this arid region that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
