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 accomplishment of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy.
However, the country has an abundance of that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil thought about to hold terrific promise as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to make use of these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high performance, along with to establish techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological technique will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production design based upon the country’s own biological resources
A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and ideal varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry area that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The task will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant genetic resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
