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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil considered to hold excellent promise as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to utilize these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will help to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to Jatropha will be constructed and ideal ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that undergoes cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to environment change. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to .
