"I would like to inform you that Senergie SA had the ambition to develop the production of biofuels by planting Jatropha curcas. The project did not work out and all the land was returned to the rural community" (by email 2021-03-15). The director adds on another email he sent me today (2021-03-25), that it was in 2015 that we stopped the activities and it was in 2018 that we returned the land. Emails received from Amady Madaga Diop, General Manager of the company.
