Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment 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 also has large numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold terrific pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, as well as to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological approach will assist to achieve a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource data relating to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this dry region that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate change. The job will work to a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
