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 upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to use these resources to establish jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and offer high productivity, along with to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be constructed and suitable ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with respect to environment modification. The project will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
