Jatropha

Information:

Some species of Jatropha are cultivated as oil crops due to the high oil content of their seeds. The oil obtained from Jatropha seeds can be used as a biofuel, although the use of Jatropha as a commercial biofuel crop has been limited by its low yield and unreliable oil production. Jatropha is also grown for ornamental purposes and as a hedge plant in some regions.

Uses:

Biofuel production: The oil extracted from Jatropha seeds can be used to produce biodiesel, which is a renewable and clean-burning fuel source.

Carbon sequestration: Jatropha can absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change.

Land restoration: Jatropha can be grown on degraded or unused land, making it a useful tool for land restoration and reforestation.

Livelihoods: Jatropha cultivation can provide a source of income and employment for rural communities, particularly in developing countries.

Soil improvement: Jatropha can help improve soil health by adding organic matter and fixing nitrogen in the soil.
