Jatropha is native to Central America, and has become naturalized in many tropical and subtropical areas, including India, Africa, and North America.
Originating in the Caribbean, the jatropha was spread as a valuable hedge plant to Africa and Asia by Portuguese traders.
There are hundreds of thousands of hectares, uncultivated ground. This land lies mainly in areas where the population leads a completely hopeless life. You can give these people a future and an existence, now and for generations to come.
