jatropha curcas is the plant with numerous prospective advantages. As the fossil fuels are decreasing quickly and the co2 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 desert, little care is enough for its development. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha curcas seed includes 35 percent oil content in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel mix approximately 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was tested successfully as a fuel for easy diesel motor. It is not a since the oil is non-edible. The oil is utilized as a conventional medicine disinfectant and to cure diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also used for lighting and in soap preparation. It is hardly ever used as a live fence in avoiding crops from livestock and it sometimes utilized as residential or commercial property demarcation. It reduces the soil erosion.

The maximum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rainfall, with temperature levels of 20 to 28 C. The soil needs to be free draining with no water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a should for high yield. The jatropha curcas is simple to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It supplies oxygen for the planet and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not endure frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is developing 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 private power business ACCESS is produces 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 expenses. 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 little 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 really economical rate 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 a promising crop for rural development. The jatropha oil illuminate rural areas with electricity. 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 minimizes 20 lots of co2 per year. The largest jatropha curcas producing nation in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the largest producers. Brazil will be the biggest producer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive procedure for this reason it creates job for lots of poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be utilized as a Renewable Energy.
