It describes climate and soil requirements to guide site selection, followed by information on best crop establishment and management practices. There is a lack of data on oil yield under different conditions, but the section on seed yields summarizes the information that is available. CLIMATEJ atropha grows in tropical and sub tropical regions, with cultivation limits at 30 N and 35 S. It also grows in lower altitudes of 0-500 metres above sea level (see Figure 6).
