Exotic eucalypts: From demonized trees to allies of tropical forest restoration? (2019, background): “…productivity (Brazil's average: 35 m3 ha−1 year−1, but reaching >60 m3 ha−1 year−1 in some regions) make eucalypts popular commercial trees for farmers (Goncalves et al., 2013); hence, eucalypts comprise 71% of tree plantation area in Brazil (5.7 Mha, IBA, 2018) and are widely used in plantations…”
Do timber plantations contribute to forest conservation (2016, background): “5 For example plantation productivity could be growing at 3% per an annum Binkley (2003) and Brazilian plantation analysis indicates an average MAI for its eucalypt plantations of 26 m3/y/ha in 1990, 30 m3/y/ha in 2000 and 40 m3/y/ha by 2012 (Gonçalves et al., 2013). research.”
