Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent guarantee as a . The goal of this job is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high productivity, in addition to 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 design based on the country’s own biological resources A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be constructed and suitable varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to climate change. The project will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
