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 upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to use these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, as well as to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method will assist to achieve a low carbon society.

a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource information relating to Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with respect to environment modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
