Intermountain Forest Tree Nutrition Cooperative (IFTNC) Forest Foliar Nutrient Analysis Vector Excell Item Info

Vector analysis is a foliar graphical technique used to compare plant growth, nutrient concentrations and nutrient content. It is a useful diagnostic tool to determine nutritional status of trees in response to silvicultural prescriptions such as forest fertilization. Vector analysis has been used over the past few decades to examine plant responses to various treatments. More recently, the IFTNC has used foliar vector analysis to interpret experimental forest nutrient status and tree growth response. IFTNC staff, graduate students, and associates developed Vector Excell. Vector Excell was written within Microsoft Excel Visual Basic Editor and runs in a PC (IBM compatible) environment. This paper covers Vector Excell installation, data entry and operation. Foliar data collection and foliar vector interpretation is the responsibility of the user and not the IFTNC, although the IFTNC can serve as advisees on these matters. Appendices A, B and C contain foliage collection and vector interpretation materials and vector analysis references, respectively.
