It is seldom used as a live fence in preventing crops from animals and it periodically utilized as residential or commercial property separation. It reduces the soil disintegration.


The maximum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm annual rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be free draining pipes without any water logging. But appropriate water and nutrition is a needs to for high yield. The jatropha is easy to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting.

The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in lots of nations. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest nations on the planet. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the main organizations developing jatropha cultivation. The personal power business ACCESS is creates and does electricity sales. Currently 247 homes are linked 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) planning to produce power for all by 2012. The little scale power generation tasks were established in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system provides 24-hour power supply at the very budget-friendly rate of 50 cents per light bulb to poor . It is 17.5 KW capability power plant works on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is a promising crop for rural advancement. The jatropha oil illuminate backwoods with electricity. The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the capability to provide 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.


The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare lowers 20 tons of co2 per 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 largest producer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive process for this reason it develops task for lots of poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be utilized as a Renewable Energy.
