Why Jatropha:
Jatropha Carcus Why Jatropha? Unlike soybeans, canola and many other agricultural sources of biodiesel feedstock, Jatropha can be cultivated on arid and semi arid non-agricultural land. This means growing Jatropha never has to compete with growing food. Also, on a per acre basis ,Jatropha can yield up to 10 times the amount of oil as other sources of biodiesel. Finally, Jatropha is a perennial, lasting up to 50 years without replanting. In fact the cake (portion of the seed left over after extraction of the seed's oil) is full of nitrogen compounds making it an excellent organic fertilizer. After 4 or 5 years of treatment with this cake the soil of this originally non-agricultural land will be suitable for planting food crops or trees for reforestation. The Uses of Jatropha Curcas The Jatropha Curcas plant has many uses outside of the production of biodiesel. Jatropha can be used to produce:
Jatropha Oil candles and soap, as a smoke-free illuminant, cooking or electricity, and biodiesel
Seed Cake Cake remaining after the oil is pressed out can be used for cooking, fertilizing (organic manure, as the oil cake is rich in nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium).
Seeds Can be used in traditional medicine to treat a long list of ailments including burns, cough, stomach ache, gonorrhea and syphilis, inflammation, jaundice, paralysis, pneumonia, rash, tumors and ulcers. The seeds also contain an alkaloid known as jatrophine, which is believed to have anti-cancerous properties.
Sap Wounds can be dressed with the sap.

Bark Yields a dark blue dye which is used in coloring cloth, fishing nets and lines
Glycerin A by-product of biodiesel production, which can be used to make a high-quality soap or refined and sold at a range of prices, depending on its purity, to be used in an immense range of products, including cosmetics, toothpaste, embalming fluids, pipe joint cement, cough medicine and tobacco (as a moistening agent).
Entire Plant The plant itself is often used as a living fence to protect livestock or serve as a boundary crop around homesteads. The plant also creates a micro-environment for other microbes and higher organisms, thus increasing both flora and fauna diversity. Additionally, the plant can be used to control soil erosion as its root system is able to bind soil particles together to reduce or prevent both wind and water erosion.
