The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi arid region, little care is enough for its growth. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha seed includes 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha curcas can be used as biodiesel blend as much as 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was checked effectively as a fuel for easy diesel engine. It is not a food crop considering that the oil is non-edible. The oil is utilized as a standard medicine disinfectant and to cure diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also utilized for lighting and in soap preparation. It is hardly ever utilized as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it sometimes 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 yearly rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil needs to be complimentary draining pipes with no water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a should 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 withstand frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in . Mali is thought about to be among the poorest countries on the planet. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the main institutions establishing jatropha curcas cultivation. The private power business ACCESS is generates and does electricity sales. Currently 247 families are connected 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) preparation to produce power for all by 2012. The small scale power generation jobs 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 inexpensive price of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant works on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural advancement. The jatropha curcas oil lights up rural areas 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 lowers 20 lots of carbon dioxide each year. The biggest jatropha producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the biggest producers. Brazil will be the largest producer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor intensive process for this reason it produces task for lots of poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable Energy.
