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 hold up against dryness and winter cold. It likewise has great deals of Jatropha trees, whose seeds have plentiful quantities of an oil considered to hold fantastic pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this job is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and offer high productivity, in addition to to establish methods of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological method will assist to attain a low carbon society.
Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource data relating to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable varieties will be established. Moreover, in this desert that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is flexible with regard to climate change. The job will work to a sustainable bioenergy production model utilizing plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
