It is rarely used as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it occasionally used as property separation. It reduces the soil erosion.

The maximum growing conditions for the Jatropha plant varies from 1000 to1500 mm yearly rainfall, with temperature levels of 20 to 28 C. The soil needs to be totally free draining pipes without any water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a must for high yield. The jatropha is easy to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It provides oxygen for the world and it can grow even in poor soil. It can not stand up to frost.
