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 upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It likewise has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have of an oil thought about to hold fantastic promise as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to make use of these resources to develop Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, along with to develop techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological approach will help to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource data associating with jatropha curcas will be constructed and appropriate ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that goes through winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to climate modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
