Eucalyptus is a diverse genus of flowering trees of a Myrtaceae family and it is a fast growing tree species widely planted in the Tropics mainly for the purpose of pulp wood for paper and rayon. As a short rotation and fast growing nature, this species is widely preferred by farmers, where there is a great demand. This review article is presented to compile all the updated information on its clonal and plantation trial in India for its quality, growth, uses and other different parameters. The main challenges to establish eucalyptus plantation in water scarcity areas is more concern due to high consumption of water and nutrient by some eucalyptus species. There is a need of technical and high-tech farming programmes to handle clonal germplasm of eucalyptus as commercial basis. The increasing demand of consumption of fuel wood should met through sustainable improvement of land and appropriate farming strategies. This review article is undertaken to evaluate the different clonal and plan

Eucalyptus, clones, clonal trial, quality parameters, growth parameters

The final conclusion of review suggests that the clonal trial of Eucalyptus at different site produces superior clones as per need and performance will be helpful for the farmers to increase their livelihood. The areas where no water scarcity exists with soil and other parameters are good, clonal plantation of desired traits can give good biomass and ultimately better return.
