Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a society based upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to make use of these resources to develop jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, in addition to to establish methods of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological approach will help to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based on the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource data relating to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry area that goes through winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with regard to climate change. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
