Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter season cold. It also has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil considered to hold fantastic promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to make use of these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high productivity, in addition to to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological approach will help to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data relating to will be built and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this arid area that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
