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 withstand dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil considered to hold great pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and offer high performance, in addition to to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with Jatropha will be constructed and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that goes through winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to climate modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
