ABSTRACT
This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of research developments in Eucalyptus replanting, focusing on key trends, influential contributors, and prominent research clusters. Utilizing data from the CrossRef database and network visualization via VOSviewer software, the analysis distilled 245 research papers down to 87 relevant manuscripts. Four primary research clusters were identified: plantation growth, productivity studies, influence and case studies, and impact analyses. The study highlights the pivotal role of optimized replanting strategies, particularly the timing of replanting and balanced fertilization, in enhancing plantation productivity and sustainability. Comparative analysis with existing literature confirms these factors' relevance in ensuring uniform growth and reducing competition among seedlings. Despite advancements, significant research gaps persist, notably in integrating traditional practices with modern technologies and understanding replanting's long-term impacts. Future research could explore the implementation of mixed-species plantations or the introduction of nitrogen-fixing species to improve soil quality and nutrient availability, potentially mitigating the negative impacts of monoculture eucalyptus planting and promoting a more resilient ecosystem. Additionally, future studies could investigate the long-term effects of these practices on both water conservation and plantation yields, providing valuable insights for sustainable management. The ecological benefits of such practices, including enhanced biodiversity and ecosystem services, warrant further exploration. The increasing volume of research and identified trends underscore the growing recognition of Eucalyptus replantation's significance for economic and ecological sustainability. By addressing critical gaps and suggesting future directions, this research supports broader environmental and economic objectives, emphasizing the importance of continued research and collaboration in the field.
