Replanting is the act of replacing or transplanting vegetation in a particular area. Synonyms for replanting include reseeding, regrowing, reset, restocking, renewing, resowing, reploughing, and replowing. Reseeding is closely related to replanting, it involves sowing new seed into an existing lawn or pasture to fill in bare spots. Regrowing refers to the process of growing back something that was cut down or damaged. Reset and restocking are commonly used in the context of forestry, referring to the process of planting new trees to replace ones that were harvested. Renewing and resowing are more general terms that can apply to any situation where new vegetation is planted to replace old. Reploughing and replowing refer to the agricultural process of tilling the soil to prepare it for new crops.
