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 on bioenergy. However, the nation has an abundance of wild plants that can hold up against dryness and winter cold. It also has great deals of jatropha curcas trees, whose seeds have abundant amounts of an oil thought about to hold fantastic pledge as a biofuel. The goal of this task is to use these resources to establish Jatropha varieties that are resistant to dryness and winter and offer high productivity, in addition to to develop techniques of cultivating these varieties. In this way, a biological technique will assist to achieve 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 will be constructed and suitable ranges will be established. Moreover, in this arid area that is subject to winter, efforts will be made to develop a cultivation system that is versatile with respect to climate modification. The task will work to build a sustainable bioenergy production design using plant hereditary resources that are native to Botswana.
