In Zambia the Jatropha plant is alredy used for live fencing in some provinces (Eastern, Western, Northern), but in most of the country it only exists in spots and is used as an ornamental plant. An exploitation in a larger scale is just starting.
On a nation wide level the following organisations are working with Jatropha:
| Startpage of the Jatropha System |
Africare Zambia |
Mount Makulu Research Station |
National Council for Scientific Research |
Zambian National Farmers Union |
