The main aim of this study was to analyse topics of research, scientific production, collaboration among countries, and most cited papers on deforestation through a bibliometric and social network study of articles found in the Web of Science database. The most productive subject areas corresponded to Environmental Sciences, Ecology and Environmental Studies. The articles were published in 458 different journals. A total of 2051 research articles were obtained. The main challenges identified for deforestation include “land use change”, “conservation”, “climate change”, “rain forest” and “reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation”. Social and economic topics are understudied. An important level of international collaboration has been identified, including the triangle of the United States, Brazil and the European Union, as well as others.
