jatropha curcas is the plant with lots of prospective advantages. As the nonrenewable fuel sources are decreasing quickly and the carbon dioxide emission given off from it pollutes the atmosphere, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to conquer it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi dry region, little care suffices for its development. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha seed contains 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel mix as much as 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was evaluated effectively as a fuel for simple diesel motor. It is not a food crop given that the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a standard medicine and to cure illness like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is likewise used for lighting and in soap preparation. It is hardly ever utilized as a live fence in preventing crops from animals and it occasionally utilized as home demarcation. It minimizes the soil erosion.

The optimal growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil ought to be totally free draining pipes without any water logging. But appropriate water and nutrition is a needs to for high yield. The jatropha is simple to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It offers oxygen for the planet and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not hold up against frost.

The jatropha curcas Electrification is developing in many countries. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest nations in the world. At Mali, Garalo jatropha curcas Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power business ACCESS are the main institutions developing jatropha curcas growing. The personal power company ACCESS is generates and does electrical energy sales. Currently 247 families are connected to the micro grid after a payment of $30 as a contribution to the connection costs. Likewise in India, the Rural Electricity Supply Technology (REST) objective of the Ministry of Power (MOP) preparation to produce power for all by 2012. The small scale power generation projects were established in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This little power system offers 24-hour power supply at the very economical price of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant works on raw jatropha curcas seed oil.Jatropha is a promising crop for rural development. The jatropha oil lights up backwoods with electrical power. The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the ability to supply 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare lowers 20 lots of co2 each year. The biggest jatropha producing nation in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the largest producers. Brazil will be the biggest manufacturer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive procedure for this reason it produces job for many bad rural people. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable resource.
