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 on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have of an oil thought about to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to make use of these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high efficiency, along with to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will help to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with respect to environment change. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
