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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold fantastic pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high efficiency, as well as to develop techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will assist to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this arid area that goes through winter, efforts will be made to a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to climate modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
