Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter cold. It also has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to use these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high performance, in addition to to develop techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information associating with jatropha curcas will be built and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
