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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It also has large numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold great guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to make use of these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high efficiency, along with to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to Jatropha will be built and suitable ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid region that goes through winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with regard to environment change. The project will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
