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 country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent promise as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high performance, along with to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will help to attain a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource information connecting to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry region that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to environment change. The job will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to .
