The Jatopha plant is a flowering plant. It is a member of the spurge family. There are approximately one hundred and seventy species of this particular plant.
Jatropha oil itself is a substance. So not being a (pure) compund, it has no chemical formula. It might be toxic.There are tens of different formulas, because it's not a pure chemical by itself but a mixture. It is a non-food, biodiesel energy oil from pressed seeds (35% oil) of Jatropha curcas(plant family: Euphorbiaceae).
Approximately 800 kilograms of jatropha oil can be obtained from one metric tonne of jatropha seeds through oil extraction processes.
The price FOB port of shipment for one MT of Jatropha oil purpose seeds is around USD$100 - 120. The price for one MT of jatropha crude oil is around USD$ 700.
Tuba-tuba, also known as Jatropha curcas, contains various chemical compounds such as curcin, phorbol esters, linoleic, oleic, and palmitic acids, as well as proteins and carbohydrates. However, it is important to note that tuba-tuba is toxic if ingested and should be handled with caution.
Tuba tuba is a common name in the Philippines for the Jatropa Curcas plant. It's usually referred to in the English speaking world as Psychic Nut.
Jatropha
Jatropha costaricensis was created in 1978.

Jatropha curcas seeds have a high oil content that can be processed into biodiesel via transesterification. Jatropha will also grow in arid and/or depleted soil where other crops may not thrive.
Production of Bio diesel can b achieved from plants algae,algae oils,algae micro elements vegetable oil,waste vegetable oil cooking oil,waste cooking oil animal fats and jatropha plants.the modern method is of jatropha plant
Kingdom: Plantae Division: Embryophyta Class: Spermatopsida Order: Malpighiales Family: Euphorbiaceae Genus: Jatropha Species: J. curcas
get the fruit of the tuba plant(jatropha carcus) then chew eat when you feel sticky spit it out and you can get the oil from it.that s all tnx
Bio-pesticides are derived as residual bi-products after fermentation of the jatropha crude oil for biodiesel production
