Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold great promise as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, along with to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method 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 relating to will be built and ideal ranges will be established. Moreover, in this desert that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with respect to environment change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
