Expectation on Jatropha curcas (Jatropha) as a source of bio-diesel fuel (BDF) has been increasing in Indonesia. The government plans to establish Jatropha plantation on about 3 million ha of its wasteland. It needs to establish a flow from seed production to use of BDF. A coal mining company in East Kalimantan has developed a trial Jatropha plantation on ex-mining area with refining facility from crude seed oil to BDF, and testing the BDF as a fuel of the vehicle in the mining area. The company involves local communities to the trial plantation activities for improving their livelihood.
