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 on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has large numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, along with to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will assist to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information connecting to Jatropha will be built and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that goes through winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with regard to environment change. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
