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 on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to use these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high efficiency, as well as to establish methods of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological approach will assist to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information associating with Jatropha will be constructed and appropriate varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry region that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is flexible with respect to climate change. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
