Jatropha is the plant with many prospective advantages. As the fossil fuels are declining rapidly and the co2 emission emitted from it contaminates the environment, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to conquer it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi dry area, little care suffices for its development. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha seed includes 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha can be utilized as biodiesel mix up to 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was tested effectively as a fuel for basic diesel engine. It is not a food crop because the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a conventional medicine disinfectant and to cure illness like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also used for lighting and in soap preparation. It is rarely utilized as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it occasionally used as property separation. It minimizes the soil disintegration.

The optimal growing conditions for the Jatropha plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm annual rainfall, with temperatures of 20 to 28 C. The soil should be totally free draining pipes without any water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a must 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 planet and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not frost.

The Jatropha Electrification is developing in lots of countries. Mali is thought about to be one of the poorest countries in the world. At Mali, Garalo Jatropha Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power business ACCESS are the main institutions developing jatropha cultivation. The private power company ACCESS is produces and does electricity sales. Currently 247 families are connected 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 little scale power generation projects were established in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system provides 24-hour power supply at the extremely inexpensive price of 50 cents per light bulb to bad villagers. It is 17.5 KW capability power plant operates on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is a promising crop for rural development. The jatropha oil illuminate backwoods with electricity. The jatropha planting on the wastelands has the capability to supply 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 hectare lowers 20 lots of co2 each 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 largest producer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor extensive procedure hence it produces task for lots of poor rural individuals. Above all Jatropha can be used as a Renewable Energy.
