Summary edit

Description Male flower of Jatropha curcas ("Physic Nut"), one of the potential biodiesel crops. The seeds grow on a tall shrub and are rich in a non-edible oil that can be transformed into biodiesel. Not everything is rosy, though, because per-hectare oil yields are still low and considerable research needs to be done. Since most Jatropha experimental plantations are situated in poor tropical countries, food security issues must be taken into account.
