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 on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It likewise has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil considered to hold great promise as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to utilize these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high efficiency, as well as to establish methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will assist to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information connecting to Jatropha will be built and appropriate varieties will be established. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to . The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
