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 nation has an abundance of wild plants that can stand up to dryness and winter cold. It likewise has big numbers of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant quantities of an oil thought about to hold fantastic promise as a biofuel. The objective of this task is to utilize these resources to develop jatropha curcas varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high performance, in addition to to establish approaches of cultivating these ranges. In this way, a biological technique will assist to accomplish a low carbon society.

Creating a bioenergy production model based upon the country's own biological resources A database of biological resource data connecting to jatropha curcas will be constructed and suitable varieties will be developed. Moreover, in this desert that is to cold weather, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with regard to environment modification. The project will work to construct a sustainable bioenergy production model using plant hereditary resources that are indigenous to Botswana.
