<br>[jatropha curcas](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) is a seasonal shrub or tree. It is drought-resistant and simple to grow in [tropical](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) to places. The plant lives for up to 50 years and may grow almost 20 feet (6 m.) tall. It has a deep, thick taproot that makes it adaptable to bad, dry soil. The leaves are oval, lobed, and deciduous. Overall, the plant is not especially visually enticing, however it does get appealing green cymes of flowerets which develop into a tri-compartment fruit with large black seeds. These big black seeds are the reason for all the hullaballoo, since they are high in burnable oil. A fascinating piece of [Jatropha tree](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) information is that it is listed as a weed in Brazil, Fiji, Honduras, India, Jamaica, Panama, Puerto Rico, and Salvador. This proves how adaptable and hardy the plant is even when presented to a new region. [Jatropha curcas](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) cultivation can [produce oil](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) that is a good alternative to existing biofuels. Its effectiveness has been challenged, however it is real the plant can produce seeds with an oil [material](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) of 37%. Unfortunately, it is still a part of the food vs. fuel debate, as it needs land that could enter into food production. Scientists are trying to develop a "extremely [Jatropha](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd)" with larger seeds and, for that reason, bigger oil yields.<br>

<br>[Jatropha](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) usages are rather restricted. Most parts of the plant are toxic to eat due to the latex sap, but it is used as a medical. It works in dealing with snakebite, paralysis, dropsy, and obviously some cancers. The plant may have stemmed in Central to South America, but it has actually been presented all over the world and flourishes wild in places like India, Africa, and Asia. Chief among [Jatropha](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4) uses is its possible as a tidy burning fuel to replace nonrenewable fuel sources. Plantation growing in specific areas has actually been attempted, however overall [Jatropha](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) curcas growing has actually been a depressing failure. This is since the production mass of oil can not equal the land use by cropping [Jatropha](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86).<br>

|

<br>The plant is easy to grow from cuttings or seed. Cuttings result in quicker maturity and quicker seed production. It prefers warm environments, but it can make it through a light frost. The deep taproot makes it drought-tolerant, although the very best growth will be accomplished with additional watering occasionally. It doesn't have any significant illness or insect problems in its natural regions. It may be pruned, but flowers and fruit form on terminal growth, so it is best to wait until after blooming. No other [Jatropha](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) plant care is necessary. This plant works as a hedge or living fence, or simply as an ornamental stand-alone specimen.<br>
