The invention provides an 
afforestation method for restoring a tropical rainforest through rubber plantation. The 
afforestation method comprises two times of rubber plantation 
felling and two times of rainforest tree seed 
afforestation, the first time of strip-shaped rubber plantation 
felling is performed firstly to reserve a natural restoration belt, then the first time rainforest tree seed afforestation is performed in cutover land, the second time of rubber plantation 
felling is performed after 3 years, residual rubber trees are 
cut off, and then the second time of rainforest tree seed afforestation is performed. The sheltering conditions of young trees can be improved by using an afforestation technology, the 
survival rate of afforestation and the growth amount of the trees are improved, and an uneven aged mixed tiered forest rich in structure is formed. By the adoption of the felling and afforestation method, the water and 
soil loss of the new afforestation land can be effectively reduced, the influence of felling on a landscape can be reduced, and the ecological 
impact brought by large-scale rubber plantation felling can be controlled. The afforestation method for restoring the tropical rainforest through rubber plantation has the advantages of being rapid in artificial 
community growth, good in stand structure and small in environmental 
ecology impact and can achieve a good rainforest restoring effect.
