Crops in Botswana grow gradually 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 endure dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, as well as to develop methods of these varieties. In this way, a biological approach will help to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this dry area that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to climate modification. The task will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
