The jatropha is easy to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of . It provides oxygen for the world and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not endure frost.
The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in lots of nations. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest nations on the planet.

The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the ability to offer 50-60% of the India’s fuel requirements.
The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare lowers 20 loads of co2 per year. The largest jatropha producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the biggest producers. Brazil will be the biggest manufacturer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive process for this reason it develops job for lots of bad rural people. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable resource.
