1 Information based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost and Drought prone Regions Of Botswana
Cameron Ricketts edited this page 2 weeks ago


Crops in Botswana grow slowly due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and winter season cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold terrific guarantee as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, in addition to to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method 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 jatropha curcas will be constructed and appropriate ranges will be established. Moreover, in this dry region that goes through cold weather, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with regard to environment change. The job will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
