Chlorophyll content is an important physiological indicator reflecting the growth status of crops. Traditional methods for obtaining crop chlorophyll content are time-consuming and labor-intensive. The rapid development of UAV remote sensing platforms offers new possibilities for monitoring chlorophyll content in field crops. To improve the efficiency and accuracy of monitoring chlorophyll content in maize canopies, this study collected RGB, multispectral (MS), and SPAD data from maize canopies at the jointing, tasseling, and grouting stages, constructing a dataset with fused features. We developed maize canopy chlorophyll content monitoring models based on four machine learning algorithms: BP neural network (BP), multilayer perceptron (MLP), support vector regression (SVR), and gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT). The results showed that, compared to single-feature methods, the MS and RGB fused feature method achieved higher monitoring accuracy, with R²: values ranging from 0.808 to 0.896, RMSE values between 2.699 and 3.092, and NRMSE values between 10.36% and 12.26%. The SVR model combined with MS&ndash:RGB fused feature data outperformed the BP, MLP, and GBDT models in monitoring maize canopy chlorophyll content, achieving an R²: of 0.896, an RMSE of 2.746, and an NRMSE of 10.36%. In summary, this study demonstrates that by using the MS&ndash:RGB fused feature method and the SVR model, the accuracy of chlorophyll content monitoring can be effectively improved. This approach reduces the need for traditional methods of measuring chlorophyll content in maize canopies and facilitates real-time management of maize crop nutrition.
