Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil considered to hold excellent guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to utilize these resources to develop Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, in addition to to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will assist to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information connecting to jatropha curcas will be built and ideal varieties will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to climate change. The project will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
