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 abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold great promise as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to use these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, as well as to develop methods of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological approach will assist to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based on the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information associating with Jatropha will be built and ideal varieties will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with respect to change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
