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 area. The jatropha seed contains 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha can be used as biodiesel blend approximately 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was tested successfully as a fuel for simple diesel engine. It is not a food crop given that the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a conventional medicine disinfectant and to treat illness like cancer, piles, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also utilized for lighting and in soap preparation. It is rarely used as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it sometimes used as property separation. It reduces the soil erosion.

The optimum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm annual rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be complimentary draining without any water logging. But appropriate 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 provides oxygen for the world and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not endure frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is establishing in many countries. Mali is thought about to be among the poorest nations worldwide. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power business ACCESS are the primary organizations developing jatropha growing. The personal power business ACCESS is generates and does electrical energy 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) 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 little power system supplies 24-hour power supply at the very affordable rate of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant operates on raw jatropha curcas seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural development. The jatropha oil illuminate backwoods with electrical energy. The jatropha curcas planting on the wastelands has the capability to provide 50-60% of the requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare reduces 20 lots of co2 each year. The biggest jatropha curcas producing nation in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the biggest manufacturers. Brazil will be the largest manufacturer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive process hence it develops task for many bad rural individuals. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable resource.
