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 on bioenergy. However, the country has an of wild plants that can endure dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about 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 winter and offer high efficiency, as well as to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological technique will assist to attain a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource data relating to Jatropha will be built and ideal ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with respect to environment modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
