Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high efficiency, as well as to establish methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will help to attain a low carbon society.
a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this arid region that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with respect to environment modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
