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 upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It likewise has big numbers of trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to utilize these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high performance, as well as to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this dry area that goes through winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile 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.
