Abstract: The present study was conducted to determine the effects of different irrigation levels (I100: full irrigation; I85: 15% deficit; I70: 30% deficit; I55: 45% deficit and I40: 60% deficit) on yield and yield components, sugar and protein content of fresh sweet corn during the years of 2011 and 2012. Experiments were carried out in a randomized complete-block design with three replications.
