jatropha curcas is the plant with numerous prospective benefits. As the nonrenewable fuel sources are decreasing rapidly and the carbon dioxide emission released from it pollutes the environment, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to conquer it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi desert, little care suffices for its growth. It grows both in topical and sub tropical area. The jatropha seed consists of 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel mix approximately 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was checked successfully as a fuel for easy diesel motor. It is not a food crop given that the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a standard medication disinfectant and to treat diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is likewise utilized for lighting and in soap preparation. It is seldom used as a live fence in preventing crops from livestock and it periodically used as property separation. It reduces the soil disintegration.

The maximum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rains, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be complimentary draining pipes without any water logging. But sufficient 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. It offers oxygen for the world and it can grow even in bad soil. It can not stand up to frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is developing in many countries. Mali is considered to be among the poorest nations on the planet. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the main institutions establishing jatropha cultivation. The personal power business ACCESS is produces and does electricity sales. Currently 247 households are linked 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) preparation to produce power for all by 2012. The little scale power generation jobs were developed in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This little power system supplies 24-hour power supply at the really affordable price of 50 cents per light bulb to bad villagers. It is 17.5 KW capacity power plant works on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is a promising crop for rural advancement. The jatropha oil illuminate rural areas with electrical power. The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the capability to provide 50-60% of the India's fuel .

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare decreases 20 loads of carbon dioxide per year. The largest 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 intensive process hence it creates task for numerous bad rural people. Above all Jatropha can be utilized as a Renewable Energy.
