The current study aimed to evaluate the potential of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and the normalized difference yellowness index (NDYI) derived from red–green–blue (RGB) imaging to monitor the growth status of winter oilseed rape from seeding to the ripening stage. Subsequently, collected values were used to evaluate their correlations with the yield of oilseed rape. Field trials with three seed densities and three nitrogen rates were conducted for two years in Salzdahlum, Germany. The images were rapidly taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle carrying a Micasense Altum multi-spectral camera at 25 m altitudes. The NDVI and NDYI values for each plot were calculated from the reflectance at RGB and near-infrared (NIR) bands’ wavelengths pictured in a reconstructed and segmented ortho-mosaic. The findings support the potential of phenotyping data derived from NDVI and NDYI time series for precise oilseed rape phenological monitoring with all growth stages, such as the seedling stage and crop growth before winter, the formation of side shoots and stem elongation after winter, the flowering stage, maturity, ripening, and senescence stages according to the crop calendar. However, in comparing the correlation results between NDVI and NDYI with the final yield, the NDVI values turn out to be more reliable than the NDYI for the real-time remote sensing monitoring of winter oilseed rape growth in the whole season in the study area. In contrast, the correlation between NDYI and the yield revealed that the NDYI value is more suitable for monitoring oilseed rape genotypes during flowering stages.
