The years of continuous research, experiments and trials have given Centre for Jatropha Promotion & Biodiesel (CJP) a big breakthrough in the search for a viable alternative feedstock for biodiesel in combination with Jatropha in December 2007. After having a number of successful field trials, CJP is now happy to announce the much awaited commercial release of Couple oil crop cultivation (COC) technology.
(PRWEB) August 3, 2009 -- The years of continuous research, experiments and trials have given Centre for Jatropha Promotion & Biodiesel (CJP) a big breakthrough in the search for a viable alternative feedstock for biodiesel in combination with Jatropha in December 2007. After having a number of successful field trials, CJP is now happy to announce the much awaited commercial release of Couple oil crop cultivation (COC) technology.
CJP is dedicated to the development of oil seed bearing trees (OSBT) - non-food multiple vegetable oil plantation and technologies in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, bring greater control and security of fuel supply and reduce dangerous climate changing emissions, including CO2. CJP's Jatropha and other non-food oil crop plantation program. With an effort to 'grow beyond oil ', apart from Jatropha, CJP has identified, developed and cultivated as many as 12 oil seed bearing trees (OSBT) and non-food oil crops. With years of continuing research, experiments and trials has provided an adage to find and develop 2nd generation biodiesel feedstock with low cost input technology.
The Director Plant Science CJP Mr. R.R. Sharma has stated that, "Jatropha plantation occupy about 50% of the planted land and to utilized the rest of land in sustainable manner we have been experimenting different intercropping options, patterns and agro- technologies. We have been in search of such an inter-crop for Jatropha which should be oil bearing like Jatr
