Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It likewise has large numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high performance, in addition to to develop approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will assist to attain 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 constructed and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with respect to climate change. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
