The optimum growing conditions for the jatropha curcas plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be complimentary draining with no water logging. But adequate water and nutrition is a should for high yield. The jatropha is easy to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It provides oxygen for the world and it can grow even in . It can not withstand frost.
The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in numerous countries. Mali is thought about to be among the poorest countries worldwide. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers’ Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the main institutions developing jatropha curcas growing. The personal power business ACCESS is generates and does electrical power sales. Currently 247 homes are linked to the micro grid after a payment of $30 as a contribution to the connection expenses.

The little scale power generation jobs were developed in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system offers 24-hour power supply at the really budget friendly price of 50 cents per light bulb to bad villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant runs on raw jatropha curcas seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural advancement. The jatropha oil lights up backwoods with electrical energy. The jatropha curcas planting on the wastelands has the ability to supply 50-60% of the India’s fuel requirements.
The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare decreases 20 lots of co2 per year. The biggest 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 intensive procedure hence it creates job for lots of poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable Energy.
