The company has established plantations in Ghana, Africa using regenerative agriculture on degraded land with pioneering high-yield Jatropha seeds. JOil addresses very relevant problems facing people and the planet through a pioneering Jatropha value chain and is present in regions with poor capacity and infrastructure. Climate change – Jatropha plantations remove carbon. Jatropha plants, stem and roots sequester carbon for 30 years. Land use & productivity – Jatropha grows on degraded lands and the cultivation of the plant is considered as reforestation. Jatropha is a non-edible feedstock for bio-substitutes and does not disrupt the food chain. Income generation – JOil provides a reliable source of income through employment opportunities for communities in the plantations. Safe and green products – The application of Jatropha for bio substitutes is eco-friendly and uses fewer raw materials in the by-products. Jatropha as feedstock for sustainable aviation fuel helps meet net zero emission targets.
