Jatropha is the plant with numerous possible advantages. As the nonrenewable fuel sources are declining rapidly and the co2 emission discharged from it pollutes the environment, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to overcome it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi dry area, little care is enough for its growth. It grows both in topical and sub tropical area. The jatropha curcas seed includes 35 percent oil content in it. The oil from jatropha curcas can be used as biodiesel blend up to 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was tested effectively as a fuel for simple diesel motor. It is not a food crop because the oil is non-edible. The oil is utilized as a conventional medication disinfectant and to treat diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also utilized for lighting and in soap preparation. It is rarely used as a live fence in avoiding crops from livestock and it occasionally utilized as home separation. It minimizes the soil erosion.

The optimum growing conditions for the jatropha curcas plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm annual rains, with temperature levels of 20 to 28 C. The soil must be totally free draining pipes with no water logging. But adequate water and nutrition is a should for high yield. The jatropha curcas is easy to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of . It offers oxygen for the world and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not endure frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in numerous nations. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest nations on the planet. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power business ACCESS are the primary institutions establishing jatropha curcas growing. The personal power business ACCESS is creates and does electrical energy sales. Currently 247 families are linked to the micro grid after a payment of $30 as a contribution to the connection expenses. Likewise in India, the Rural Electricity Supply Technology (REST) mission of the Ministry of Power (MOP) planning to produce power for all by 2012. The small scale power generation projects were developed in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This little power system provides 24-hour power supply at the very budget friendly price of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant operates on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural development. The jatropha curcas oil lights up rural areas with electrical energy. The jatropha curcas planting on the wastelands has the ability to supply 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare decreases 20 lots of carbon dioxide annually. The largest jatropha producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the biggest manufacturers. Brazil will be the largest manufacturer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor intensive procedure thus it develops job for numerous poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be utilized as a Renewable resource.
