The planned plantation, when fully operational in 2008, will produce up to 3 million gallons of Crude Jatropha Oil (CJO), which is bio-feedstock used to produce bio-diesel.
The plantation will be located in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, which has an optimal climate for growing the Jatropha Carcus.

We are confident that our current and future needs for feedstock will be secured and enhanced in this joint venture.
