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 upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It also has large numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold great pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to use these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, as well as to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will assist to accomplish a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to will be built and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this dry region that is subject to cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to climate modification. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
