INTRODUCING …THE JATROPHA PLANT . . .

© Dr. Elias Tana Moning BA Phil., M. Agr., Ed. D.

What is Jatropha plant? Jatropha names

English name: Physics nut scientific name: Jatropha curcas L. Indonesian name: Jarak pagar Trade name: Jatropha

This plant belongs to Euphorbiaceous family known for its drought resistance characteristic.

It grows well in poor soil where other plant can’t grow.

The plant’s seeds or nuts contain 23% – 25% of non edible oil and a high quality oil source for bio-fuel.

This oil has -2° Centigrade freezing point, a highly wanted characteristic for use as motor vehicle fuel based in the cold weather condition.

Jatropha plant characteristics

• Easy to grow in marginal and poor soil environment

• Drought resistance, it is one of the succulent family, the plant sheds it leaves during drought period and the plant becomes dormant.

• Traditionally Jatropha plant is used for hedgerows. In Mali, Africa and in many other countries, jatropha is grown to protect food crop inside their boundaries from grassing animals.

• Jatropha prefers dry land with little water. If planted in wet soil the plant tend to grow more leaves and few fruits/nuts.

• On the other hands, irrigation during the dry season will improve yields significantly.




Jatropha Plants Characteristics (continues)

• Jatropha can be propagated using its seeds, sticks, and in vitro (tissue culture).

• In vitro propagation technique will produce the carbon copy of the parent trees, providing a homogenous population with good traits.

• The plant will start to give fruits during the first year.

• First year harvest will be insignificant around 0.5 Ton/Ha.

• Countable harvest of 1.5-2 Ton/Ha may be expected to begin in the third year.





Jatropha Grows in Poor and Critical Soil

Jatropha garden on Peat Soil


Propagation and Productivity

Jatropha produced from in-vitro technique will improve productivity

significantly


With root modification or ex-vitro technique that encourage extensive root-

growth, and so would increase productivity


Jatropha planted from a stick, this plant will produce average level of

productivity




Jatropha is Sturdy and Drought Resistant


A 3 months old Jatropha plant grows very well in a sandy soil just 200 meters away from the ocean beach in Srandakan, Yogyakarta


Jatropha Grows in Saline Soil


A 18 months old jatropha plant also grows very well in saline, sandy soil of Srandakan beach, Yogyakarta. It has

fruits.


Our Partnering Farmers: To utilize Marginal/Critical soil to grow Jatropha so it adds Economic Value

to unproductive soil and NO Disruption to Food Crop Production or Destruction to Forest Land Area.

Age of Jatropha Trees Could Extend Beyond 100 Years

• Based on the found Jatropha garden planted from early 19th Century in Soe, Timor Island, NTT province.

• The girth of one trunk, is about one person hug, and they still grow very well and very productive.

• Jatropha trees in this garden are about over 100 years old.

• This broke our initial assumption that Jatropha need replanting after 50 years of age due to declining productivity.

• Jatropha can grow up much older than 100 years and still productive like the olive trees. Please look at the bottom picture in the left, every branches give fruits.

Jatropha Productivity Increases by age: Older Trees More Productive

• The finding of Jatropha garden from around the turnover of the century in Soe, Timor proves that: production could increase beyond 5 Tons/Hectare/Year after the plant maturity at year five.

• This fact broke our initial assumption about the level of Jatropha OPTIMUM level of productivity estimated at 5 Tons/Hectare/Year with irrigation or about 2.5 M/T per year per hectare without irrigation.

• This finding also indicates productivity level in term of Tons/Hectare/Year after Jatropha plant maturity will keep on increasing, even when Jatropha is planted in non-irrigated soil.



Fruits from the very old tree


Bee-keeping increase Jatropha Production and Farmers Income

• Jatropha female flowers are separated from its male flowers and they need the “work” of pollinator insects to fertilize the flowers.

• bee-keeping activities would increase Jatropha fruits production

• Farmers can milk their honey for additional income.

• Jatropha growing and beekeeping are two activities mutually benefitting to one another

Working bees pollinate Jatropha flowers to produce more fruits

Jatropha female flowers will sustain and bear more fruits with bees pollination


Community Social Responsibility and Sustainability

• Community Social Responsibility and Sustainability are best done in partnership with farmers and community and grassroots organizations

• Using community development approaches that guarantee all parties benefit

• Will focus on the four pillar of sustainability in all levels i.e.:

• Economy• Environment • Social • Technological

Partnership with Farmers and Communities

• The strength of community support will guarantee success and long run operation of this program.

• Planting operation will become much less costly as land ownership stays at the original owners.

• Focus on poor and marginal land to bring in significant benefits economically, environmentally and agronomic soil improvements.

• This project is clearly a sustainable agricultural project that meets all aspects of sustainability requirements.

• A guarantee to bring good short term and long-term profits to the company, farmers and their communities.

Community meeting and organizing will become major part for the success of this

program.



Optimizing Jatropha Planting Business

• We introduce Co-Enterprising approach that way we can cover more spread and extensive area.

• We focus on unused land, critical land where nobody use them for planting food crops.

• Our company will negotiate umbrella agreement with local and provincial governments that guarantees the government support towards our planting farmers

Critical and unused land like this one in Sikka District, Flores suits well for

Jatropha planting



Optimizing Jatropha Planting Business:The Teakwood Bonus

• Guarantee the purchase of farmers’ jatropha beans, on the selling side we collect Commitment to Buy (CTB) and Letter of Intent (LOI) from various buyers.

• To motivate farmers, the company will share-crop high value wood crop seedlings of fast growing Teakwood or Jati unggul (Tectona grandis), known for its best quality of wood to be planted in the hedges of Jatropha.

• Teakwood shares similar soil condition and climate environment as Jatropha

• With 100 seedlings of fast growing Teakwood planted in 5 meter distance, farmers will reap additional significant income bonus from Teakwood in 7 to 10 years.

• Fast growing Teakwood could be harvested in 7-10 years will give additional income to farmers a minimum of US$ 12,500.00 of present value from sales of Teakwood .

• It is projected that International teakwood price trend is going to be doubled every 5 years.

Teakwood fits well with jatropha planting when planted in the perimeter.

Cattle Fattening Program after Return on Investment (ROI)

• After Return of Investment (ROI) company may launch cattle fattening program to further help farmers to improve their income.

• This Associative Program along with fast growing Teakwood and bee-keeping will help farmers to cooperatively work together with the company.

• This Associative Programs help retain farmers interests in our company.


Supports for Farmers’ Jatropha Planting

• Governments through their Forestry Offices to give access to use marginal and critical land to farmers for Jatropha planting.

• Outreach International Bioenergy provides training and seeds for planting jatropha and maintaining jatropha plants.

• Outreach International Bioenergy will provide 10% profit sharing incentive to partnering farmers and various involving social organizations and Local Governments for their supports;

• Maintain retention of partnering farmers with Associated Program like Bee-Keeping, fast growing Teakwood and Cattle-fattening

Organic Jatropha Farm• Marginal and critical land are part of

Indonesian traditional organic farming system.

• These land were left intact during the four decades of Green Revolution that damaged the food industry with contamination of manufactured pesticides and fertilizers.

• We plan to maintain the organic characteristics of this land by application of organic farming practices.

• We will use compost, PPGR (Plant Promoting Growth Rhizobacteria), vermiculture or worm-casting, green fertilizers and other organic matters to optimize results and increase productivity.

PGPR or Bacteria “Fertilizer”

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is a group of beneficial bacteria that promote plant growth and in line with organic farming.

PGPR functions as “fertilizer” and bio-pesticide

PGPR bacteria application is done through inoculation around the root system (rhizophere) that promotes root growth and supplies of nutrients.

Common PGPR currently used are Mycorhyza, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas putida, Trichoderma sp. and Bacillus polymixa.

PGPR treated


Benefits of Using PGPR

• PGPR ability to produce or change the concentration of the plant hormones indoleacetic acid, gibberellic acid that promotes root growth also cytokinins and ethylene that promotes stems and leaves.

• Allow root system symbiotic Nitrogen (N2) fixation

• Antagonism against phytopathogenic microorganisms (e.g., Fusarium spp. that cause root and leaves to rot) by production of plant protection entities:

siderophores, glucanase chitinases, antibiotics and cyanide.

• Increase solubility of mineral phosphates

and other nutrients to mineral format absorbable by the plant

Optimizing Jatropha Garden

Optimizing efforts we chose for obtaining High Yielding Jatropha seedlings from highly productive parent stock.

Use good mother trees like the ones from Soe, Timor Island.

Encourage farmers to grow multiple cropping planted between rows local corn variety “Yellow Piet” to help farmers overcome food shortage.

Our target when the plants reached 5 years old is 5 Ton/Hectare/Year.Photo: © Heryanto Ardiya, 2007


In Partnership with Farmers

We will provide training and seeds for planting jatropha and assists farmers in maintaining jatropha plants, for the best outcomes.

We guarantee the purchase of farmers’ jatropha beans. Farmers should NOT worry that they grow Jatropha in vain.

We aim long term business relation with farmers for at least 35 years with renewable option. This will be stated in our contract agreement with the farmers.

Community meeting and organizing via local community orgzation will become

modus operandi in cooperating with farmers.



Farmers Will Get Profit Shares

We will give 10% of company profit shares to partnering farmers. This will be based on the land proportion.

We hire Community Organizers and cooperate with community organizations -- the existing social structures -- of the farming society. They will receive salary and some in-kind incentives.

This approach – along with Jatropha affiliation programs - guarantees farmers retention and loyalty.

Jatropha Planting Benefits Farmers

• Outreach International Bioenergy will negotiate with local and provincial government to provide access to critical, marginal and poor land for the farmers.

• No farmers’ food production land will be disturbed for Jatropha.

• Farmers will enjoy guaranteed income from their jatropha planting.

• Jatropha business brings cash to local economy and will contribute to other social economic improvements in the community.


Unused land at the foothills of Mt. Ebulobo volcano, Bajawa, Flores; suits well for jatropha planting area.


Jatropha Planting Benefits Farmers

• Availability of cash will encourage other sectors of economy to start moving and create some multiplying effects

• Farmers living environment will significantly be improved

• Farmer quality of life will be improved

• Soil quality and conditions will also be improved, this will open up opportunities for multi cropping with food crops.

• We will promote local improved variety corn “Yellow Piet” or Piet Kuning for multiple cropping.

Ripening Jatropha fruits ready for harvest


Overall Benefits Jatropha Program

Jatropha improves soil conditions and makes soil more fertile, thus open opportunity for multiple cropping with food or cash crops.

Improved soil condition brings additional income to farmers

Jatropha holds water in upland area that way it reduces chances for flood in low land area.

Jatropha brings cash to the rural area and improves farmers’ family income and moves local economy and brings equality to the rural areas.


Hills covered with imperata grass (alang-alang) near Magepanda will suit well for Jatropha.


Government Support to Farmers

• Open up farmers access to poor marginal and unused land to be planted with jatropha.

• Provide incentives to farmers to develop jatropha planting.

• Government and farming community will enjoy the multiplier effects on social and economic sector as the results of the increasing of jatropha planting.

• Improvement of local economy will increase government tax-based revenues.

• Improve local food security by supporting local corn variety for multiple cropping

Critical land like this one located in Kotabaru, Sikka, Flores will become good planting site for

Jatropha planting

Fair Trade and Fair Price

• We believe in fair price for farmers’ Jatropha beans we buy is crucial to the success of our program.

• We want to pay farmer the best price they expect.

• We have done sensitivity analysis to see how our selling price of Jatropha oil should reflect in the price of beans we purchase from the farmers.

• Assuming Return of Investment (ROI) should happen during the third or the fourth year. Photo © Elias Moning, 2008


Fair Trade and Fair Price• if we could sell our Jatropha oil for US $

800.00 to US $ 900.00 per MT we can buy farmers’ beans at IDR 900.00 – IDR 1000.00 per KG.

• As of March 2008, with CPO price at Bursa Malaysia Derivatives (BMD) in the above US $ 1,200.00 /MT, we plan to sell our CJO for at least US $ 900.00 /MT.

• Currently (Mid 2010) there are high demands for Crude Jatropha oil for research and aviation bio-jet-fuel test and the end buyers are offering to pay up to $1,500/MT.

• But as we don’t sell direct we still have to relay on regular traditional price which is much lower.




Fair Trade and Fair Price

• Fair trade and fair price for every party involves in trading and this count will go on consistently interrelated.

• If we pay farmers’ Jatropha beans more than our selling price we easily buy at loss

• This will affect in prolonging our Return of Investment (ROI)

• Could even push us into bankruptcy.

• Something we should avoid from happening.Photo © Elias Moning, 2007



Collaboration with Community Organizers

Community Organizers to Identify interested farmers and farmer groups; They collect information about villages, hamlets, potential marginal land for Jatropha planting.

Community Organizers to work together with community leaders so they too are involved in the identification process and become supportive in the continuing of the program.

Community Organizers work with farmers and farmer groups to sign in long-term Jatropha Planting contract that will list farmers rights and responsibilities and benefits promised by the company.

Community Organizers work on commission fee based for recruitment of Farmers, and their salary is profit based of their farmer’s land productivities.

Contract with Partnering Farmers


Contract with Partnering Farmers

Contract with partnering Farmers is done with Farmer groups and individual farmers altogether.

We use the group support for individual farmers commitment to ensure a long term sustainable working relationship.

Contract will be signed for the first 35 years in order to adapt the UN FCCC REDD carbon sink program.

Contract Extension will be proposed for the next 35 year afterward.


Local Government Support Land mapping exercise – to identify

marginal land, land that is not used for growing food-crop

To grant access to farmers to these marginal land.

To share land utilization information with us this way we can identify communities to work with us in Jatropha planting program.

Clarify legal definition of use for this land clearly to farmers. Farmers are to have “ the right to use land” not the right to own the land.

In the conservation land, farmers to follow conservation measures in growing their Jatropha.

Benefits to Local Government: tax based revenues will increase with improved farmers income.

Energy Efficiency and Energy Balance

• The fact, it takes non-renewable energy, i.e. petro diesel to produce Jatropha oil, a renewable source of energy.

• We are aware that in order to produce most of renewable energy the production process requires significant intake of non-renewable energy sources that is petrol oil.

• With this consideration we plan to use small machineries to expel, filter and purify Jatropha oil on location - at the village or sub-district level –

• Mini Jatropha oil processing facility to support a cluster area to cover at least 1,000 hectares of farmers’ Jatropha garden.

Energy Efficiency and Energy Balance

• We plan to use small diesel powered engines to power our expelling, filtering and refining machines. These mini processing plants will require about 15 liters of diesel fuel in order to produce 600 liters of Jatropha oil in a day, so efficiency and energy balance between renewable and non-renewable oil is 1:12.

• After the second year we plan to modify our diesel engines using dual-tank fuel system with petrol diesel fuel initially runs only during the first half an hour to heat pure Jatropha oil to be used in the rest of engine operation for the rest of the day.

• Using dual tank system diesel engines we can drastically reduce the need for petrol diesel down to 5 liter a day, and this make energy utilization ratio between non-renewable use and renewable oil produced now become 1:120.

Our Jatropha oil processing should take minimum intake of non-renewable or petrol fuel to reduce carbon emission

Energy Efficiency and Energy Balance• We may pursue to modify our diesel

engine to use preheated Jatropha oil using high oil content Jatropha cake, the leftover of Jatropha expelling activities.

• We will explore the possibility of replacing engine cooling water with Jatropha oil that way the cooling process of the diesel engine is done simultaneously with preheating Jatropha oil for combustion.

• When this happen our Jatropha oil processing plant will use 100% of our own produced Jatropha oil and zero petrol oil.

• This way we will use only renewable source of energy from our own production facilities.

Costs and Benefits calculation

The above calculation is based on assumption of selling price of FOB/Port of Flores, Indonesia US $ 700.00 M/Ton CJO

Purchase price of dry Jatropha beans for extraction is IDRp 1,000 per KG

Jatropha oil extraction rate averages 4 kilograms seeds to produce 1 liter CJO

Jatropha seed production rate begin with 0.5 ton/hectare/year in the first year, and become optimal in the seventh year when production rate achieves 5 M/Tons/hectare/year.

Volkswagen Lupo with Elsbett diesel engine can use straight vegetable oil.


Cost and Benefits calculation With the increasing age productivity will also

increase, when this situation happens we will reap bigger revenue.

Showcase of two hectares over 100 years old Jatropha Forest in Timor, NTT, tells us the older Jatropha tree the more productive they become.

To encourage farmer’s participation and motivation, partnering farmers will receive 10% shares from the gross-profit, proportionately to their land.

To guarantee high Jatropha productivity, we will to provide our participating partners and farmers with high quality seedlings produced using “in-vitro” or “ex-vitro” multiplication technique. During the first years we still need to use local seeds for making the sapling. Volkswagen Lupo with Elsbett diesel

engine can use straight vegetable oil.

Profit is NOT EverythingWe Do Care

• We ensure this program is sustainable in all aspects.
