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 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 of an oil thought about to hold terrific pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to use these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, in addition to to develop techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will help to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry region that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate change. The job will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
