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 country has an abundance of that can endure dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil considered to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high productivity, along with to develop methods of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will assist to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based on the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource information associating with jatropha curcas will be built and appropriate varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to establish a growing system that is versatile with respect to climate change. The task will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
