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 nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It also has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to make use of these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high productivity, in addition to to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method will help to attain 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 appropriate ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this dry area that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is versatile with respect to change. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
