Information-based Optimization of Jatropha Biomass Energy Production in the Frost- and Drought-prone Regions Of Botswana
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 upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The objective of this job is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather and deal high efficiency, as well as to develop approaches of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological method will help to achieve a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own
A database of biological resource information relating to Jatropha will be constructed and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this dry area that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is flexible with regard to climate modification. The job will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
