1 Information based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost and Drought prone Regions Of Botswana
Dewitt Byars edited this page 1 month ago


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 nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It also has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold fantastic pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this project is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to and winter and deal high productivity, in addition to to develop techniques of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will assist to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources A database of biological resource data relating to Jatropha will be constructed and ideal 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 regard to environment change. The job will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant genetic resources that are native to Botswana.
