Description: A.FO.CEL has developed a technique for mass propagation by cuttings of Eucalyptus in France. This technique is described from the selection of the ortet to the mass propagation of the clone for afforestation: the first stage is the mobilization of the ortet, the second stage is called pre-propagation which includes rejuvenating and rooting conditioning, the third stage is mass propagation. The mass propagation is realized from successive propagations of mother trees; the number of which increases from generation to generation by including the new rooted cuttings. We give practical advices on atmosphere, treatments depending on the season which govern the success of the technique.
