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 on bioenergy. However, the country has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter season cold. It likewise has large numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have plentiful amounts of an oil thought about to hold excellent pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this project is to make use of these resources to establish jatropha curcas ranges that are resistant to dryness and winter and deal high performance, in addition to to develop techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this method, a biological technique will help to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based on the nation's own biological resources
A database of biological resource information relating to jatropha curcas will be built and suitable ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that undergoes winter, efforts will be made to establish a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to environment change. The task will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production design utilizing plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
