Jatropha grows wild in many areas and even thrives on infertile soil. A good crop can be obtained with little effort. Depending on soil quality and rainfall, oil can be extracted from the jatropha nuts after two to five years. The kernels of jatropha fruits contain about 60% oil, which is mainly transformed into biodiesel fuel through esterification.
Besides, jatropha oil can also be used in bio-pesticide and medicinal industry. Jatropha cake can be used for fish or animal feed (if detoxified), biomass feedstock to power electricity plants, or as biogas or high-quality organic fertilizer.
