Abstract: Reduction of leaf area significantly affects maize productivity, due to its low plasticity. Thus, appropriate water application can minimize this problem, considering that under favorable water conditions the plant would express its maximum production potential. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of irrigation on the productive performance of sweet corn submitted to different defoliation levels at the beginning of crop cycle. The experimental design was a randomized block design, arranged in s… Show more

“…Muhumed et al (2014) indicated that the soil-water deficit reduces the uptake of macronutrients and, therefore, limits the sweet corn growth, but the full irrigation enables the roots to absorb the required nutrients from the soil. Moreover, Santos et al (2018) cited that nutrients reach roots by mechanisms directly related to the water availability in the soil; therefore, sweet corn expresses its maximum production potential in a favorable soil-water status. In addition, the speed of canopy closure in triple rows improved the light interception, rising plant growth rates.…”
