Crops in Botswana grow due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It also has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold great promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to use these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high efficiency, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will assist to achieve a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource data connecting to Jatropha will be constructed and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to environment modification. The job will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
