The Distribution And Resource Evaluation of Typical Energy Plants (Jatropha curcas L.) in Guangxi, China

Abstract:

Jatropha curcas L. is an important resource for bioenergy. There are many kinds of energy plants in the world, but they are not utilized sufficiently. Because of the lack of knowledge on resource numbers and distribution of energy plant limited their development. In this paper, we discussed the natural distribution of Jatropha curcas L. in Guangxi province. At the same time, we carried out assessment on the energy plant resource numbers of Jatropha curcas L. in Guangxi. At last, we provided some suggestions for developing of Jatropha curcas L. in China.
