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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil considered to hold excellent pledge as a . The objective of this task is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, along with to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry area that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with respect to climate modification. The task will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
