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 withstand dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high efficiency, as well as to establish techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own A database of biological resource data associating with Jatropha will be constructed and ideal ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with regard to environment change. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
