Yield data of 52 young Hamlin trees in a commercial orchard were collected in two seasons, 2000/2001 and 2001/2002, along with spectral response data extracted from multispectral digital aerial images. The images were collected by a high resolution video camera in two distinct phenological stages: before and after the period of vegetative growth. NDVI, SAVI, red and infrared raw digital numbers data were selected for describing the relations. Regression analyses showed significant relationships between yield and spectral response, however the values of r² were low. Taken multispectral digital images before or after the vegetative growth period were similar performed.
