Jatropa is an underutilized, oil-bearing crop. It produces a seed
that can be processed into non-polluting biodiesel, and grows under
drought condition. This publication presents a compilation of
information on key practical issues affecting jatropha for pro-poor
development, based on the knowledge available from research reports
and ongoing unpublished research material. This document provides a
brief overview of biofuels, their growth drivers and their
potential impacts on poor societies. The information is provided to
increase knowledge of jatropha throughout subtropical and tropical
areas. It will also contribute to strengthening policies and
strategies that recognize the potential of jatropha with regard to
pro-poor development, sustainable rural income and improved
livelihoods in developing countries. This publication will interest
a wide range of readers including government and institutional
policy- and decision-makers, international and multilateral
development organizations, donors, NGOs, the private sector and
foundations as well as researchers, advisors, teachers and
professionals in agriculture.
