Jatropha is the plant with numerous prospective advantages. As the fossil fuels are declining quickly and the co2 emission given off from it contaminates the atmosphere, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to conquer it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi arid area, little care is enough for its development. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha seed consists of 35 percent oil content in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel mix up to 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was evaluated effectively as a fuel for engine. It is not a food crop considering that the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a conventional medication disinfectant and to cure diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is likewise used for lighting and in soap preparation. It is rarely used as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it periodically used as residential or commercial property demarcation. It minimizes the soil disintegration.

The optimal growing conditions for the Jatropha plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm annual rains, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be totally free draining pipes with no water logging. But adequate water and nutrition is a must for high yield. The jatropha is simple to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It provides oxygen for the planet and it can grow even in bad soil. It can not hold up against frost.

The jatropha curcas Electrification is developing in numerous countries. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest nations worldwide. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the main institutions establishing jatropha cultivation. The private power company ACCESS is generates and does electrical power sales. Currently 247 families 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 small scale power generation tasks were developed in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system offers 24-hour power supply at the extremely affordable price of 50 cents per light bulb to bad villagers. It is 17.5 KW capacity power plant operates on raw jatropha curcas seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural advancement. The jatropha oil lights up backwoods with electrical power. The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the ability to provide 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare decreases 20 loads of co2 each year. The largest jatropha producing nation 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 extensive procedure for this reason it produces job for many bad rural individuals. Above all jatropha curcas can be used as a Renewable Energy.
