Information-based Optimization Of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production In The Frost- And Drought-prone Regions Of Botswana

Crops in Botswana grow gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the accomplishment of a low carbon society based on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold great pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, in addition to to develop methods of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.


Creating a bioenergy production design based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and suitable ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this arid area that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
