Carbohydrate levels are important regulators of the growth and yield of tree crops. Current methods for measuring foliar carbohydrate concentrations are time consuming and laborious, but rapid imaging technologies have emerged with the potential to improve the effectiveness of tree nutrient management. Carbohydrate concentrations were predicted using hyperspectral imaging (400&ndash:1000 nm) of leaves of the evergreen tree crops, avocado, and macadamia. Models were developed using partial least squares regression (PLSR) and artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms to predict carbohydrate concentrations. PLSR models had R2 values of 0.51, 0.82, 0.86, and 0.85, and ANN models had R2 values of 0.83, 0.83, 0.78, and 0.86, in predicting starch, sucrose, glucose, and fructose concentrations, respectively, in avocado leaves. PLSR models had R2 values of 0.60, 0.64, 0.91, and 0.95, and ANN models had R2 values of 0.67, 0.82, 0.98, and 0.98, in predicting the same concentrations, respectively, in macadamia leaves. ANN only outperformed PLSR when predicting starch concentrations in avocado leaves and sucrose concentrations in macadamia leaves. Performance differences were possibly associated with nonlinear relationships between carbohydrate concentrations and reflectance values. This study demonstrates that PLSR and ANN models perform well in predicting carbohydrate concentrations in evergreen tree-crop leaves.
