Company Description
Information-based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost- and Drought-prone Regions Of Botswana
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 endure dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have of an oil considered to hold terrific pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high performance, in addition to to establish approaches of cultivating these varieties.
In this way, a biological approach 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 connecting to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable varieties will be developed.
Moreover, in this dry area that goes through cold weather condition, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with regard to environment change. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
