The jatropha seed includes 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha curcas can be utilized as biodiesel mix as much as 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was evaluated effectively as a fuel for basic diesel motor. It is not a food crop considering that the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a traditional medicine disinfectant and to treat illness like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also utilized for lighting and in soap preparation. It is hardly ever used as a live fence in avoiding crops from livestock and it periodically utilized as residential or commercial property demarcation. It minimizes the soil disintegration.

The maximum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil ought to be free draining pipes without any water logging. But adequate water and nutrition is a should 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 poor soil. It can not stand up to frost.

The jatropha curcas Electrification is developing in numerous nations. Mali is considered to be among the poorest nations worldwide. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power business ACCESS are the primary organizations establishing jatropha curcas growing. The private power company ACCESS is generates and does electrical power sales. Currently 247 homes 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) mission of the Ministry of Power (MOP) planning 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 little power system provides 24-hour power supply at the very budget-friendly rate of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant runs on raw jatropha curcas seed oil.jatropha curcas is a promising crop for rural development. The jatropha curcas oil illuminate rural areas with electrical energy. The jatropha curcas planting on the wastelands has the ability to offer 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare decreases 20 lots of co2 per year. The biggest jatropha producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the largest manufacturers. Brazil will be the in Latin America. The plantation is a labor intensive process for this reason it creates task for numerous bad rural individuals. Above all jatropha curcas can be used as a Renewable Energy.
