1 Information based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost and Drought prone Regions Of Botswana
Michal Hanks edited this page 3 months ago


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 nation has an abundance of wild plants that can withstand dryness and . It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold fantastic guarantee as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to make use of these resources to establish Jatropha ranges that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high efficiency, along with to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method will assist to attain a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource information associating with jatropha curcas will be built and suitable ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid region that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is flexible with regard to environment modification. The project will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
