The violation of the classical bounds imposed by Leggett-Garg inequalities has tested the quantumness of neutrino oscillations (NOs) over a long distance during the propagation. The measure of quantumness in experimentally observed NOs is studied via quantum resource theory (QRT). Here, we focus on the trade-off relations of QRT in the three-flavor NOs, based on Bell-type violations, first-order coherence and intrinsic concurrence, and the relative entropy of coherence. For the electron and muon antineutrino oscillations, the analytical trade-off relations obeyed by the Bell-CHSH inequality of pairwise flavor states in this three-flavor neutrino system are obtained; the sum of the maximal violation of the CHSH tests for three pairwise flavor states is less than or equal to 12. Moreover, there exists an equality relation concerning first-order coherence and intrinsic concurrence in NOs, showing how much quantum resources flow between first-order coherence and intrinsic concurrence during the neutrino propagation. In addition, it is found that the tripartite coherence of three-flavor system is equal to or larger than the sum of the coherence of reduced bipartite flavor states. The trade-off relations of QRT provide a method for studying how the quantum resources convert and distribute in NOs, which might inspire the future applications in quantum information processing using neutrinos.
