| Jatropha is a perennial shrub with multiple uses. Although Jatropha is our primary crop for biofuel feedstock, Jatropha is used as traditional medicine to treat fracture, various skin problems, and as purgative. It is likewise used as pesticide, soap, and fuel oil for lighting and cooking. |

Because of its strong root system, jatropha can grow almost everywhere. It can hold water and survive the driest season. It is, thus, useful in reforestation and soil projects. |
