Phosphorus (P) is an important element to litchi yield and fruit quality in addition to nitrogen (N) and potassium (K). This study was undertaken to explore the ability to predict P content using canopy reflectance. Some published indices and two ratio spectral indices (Ratio of reflectance index, RRI; Ratio of reflectance difference index, RRDI) developed by band interactive-optimization algorithms were investigated to determine their performance in predicting litchi canopy foliar P content. The results showed that optimal spectral indices selected by correlation analyses reached the highest level of accuracy in the retrieval of P content at each growth stage (R2cv = 0.54–0.98, RMSEcv = 0.02–0.03). The particular wavelengths of importance in the significant RRIs and RRDIs changed with the growing stages, cultivars and planting conditions. The sensitive wavebands ranged from the visible to the short-wave infrared (SWIR) regions, which are related to the absorption features of pigments (e.g., anthocyanin, chlorophyll), proteins, nitrogen, starch, sugar, oil, cellulose, and lignin. And the wavebands in SWIR region were used in the optimal RRIs and RRDIs for growth stages. This study demonstrates that the optimal RRDI is useful in predicting litchi foliar P content. The successes of use of SWIR in foliar nutrient monitoring is important for precision agriculture.
