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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold great pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to use these resources to establish jatropha curcas that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, in addition to to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological technique will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
