The jatropha seed consists of 35 percent oil content in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel blend up to 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was checked effectively as a fuel for basic diesel motor. It is not a food crop given that the oil is non-edible.

It is rarely utilized as a live fence in preventing crops from animals and it sometimes used as property demarcation. It decreases the soil disintegration.

The optimal growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rains, with temperature levels of 20 to 28 C. The soil ought to be totally free draining without any water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a should for high yield. The 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 bad soil. It can not hold up against frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is developing in lots of nations. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest countries worldwide. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the primary institutions establishing jatropha curcas cultivation. The personal power business ACCESS is creates and does electrical power 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) mission of the Ministry of Power (MOP) planning to produce power for all by 2012. The small scale power generation projects were developed in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system supplies 24-hour power supply at the really cost effective rate of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capacity power plant runs on raw jatropha seed oil.jatropha curcas is an appealing crop for rural advancement. The jatropha oil lights up backwoods with electrical energy. The jatropha 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 heaps of carbon dioxide annually. The largest jatropha curcas producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the biggest producers. Brazil will be the biggest producer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor intensive process thus it produces task for numerous bad rural individuals. Above all jatropha curcas can be utilized as a Renewable Energy.
