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 upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold great pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to utilize these to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, as well as to develop techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological technique will help to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate ranges will be established. Moreover, in this dry area that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with regard to climate modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
