Description:
Bright Ideas will grow and harvest Jatropha, an inedible plant with seeds that are rich in oil, for biofuel production. Jatropha, is an excellent choice for biofuel production, as it produces four times as much fuel per acre as soy and ten times as much as corn, while requiring only minimal care and resources. It will even grow in poor soils that are unsuitable for growing food crops. The company will grow Jatropha on old landfills and dumps in Sarasota FL.
