Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It also has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this project is to use these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high productivity, as well as to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will assist 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 connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to environment change. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
