Crops in gradually due to dryness and cold-weather, and this is a barrier to the achievement of a low carbon society based upon bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It also has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold excellent promise as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to utilize these resources to establish jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and cold weather condition and deal high productivity, in addition to to establish methods of cultivating these ranges. In this method, a biological technique will help to attain a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production design based on the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be constructed and appropriate ranges will be developed. Moreover, in this dry region that goes through winter, efforts will be made to develop a growing system that is flexible with regard to environment modification. The task will work to develop a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
