The variations of the elements that are examined most frequently during foliar analysis were determined for kiwi as a function of different nitrogen and potassium fertilizer loads. The values recorded demonstrated the existence of a relation between the leaves and the fruit. Two groups of elements were identified that exhibited different responses. The first group comprised elements that, in leaves and fruits, presented a different evolution as a function of at least one of the fertilizers. This group included B, Cu, Fe, Na, and Zn. The second group comprised elements that, in both leaves and fruits, exhibited a comparable evolution as a function of both fertilizer types. This group included N, Ca, Mg, Mn, P, and K.
