Abstract
An experiment was conducted for 2 years (Dec.2020 to March-2021 and Nov. 2021 to Feb. 2022) to assess sweet corn crop performance undervarious irrigation water management strategies. Sweet corn was grown in winter season at the research farm. JAU, Junagadh, Gujarat, India.Total 32 treatments comprising of aerated and non-aerated irrigation, deficit irrigation (0.7 ETc) and full irrigation (1.0 ETc), deficit fertigation(0.7 RDF) and full fertigation (1.0 RDF), Surface drip and subsurface drip and with/ without mulch. The yield of fresh green cob and fodderwere observed from each of 2 replications of each of 32 treatments. The highest net return of 214767 Rs/ha could be obtained under treatmentof aerated subsurface drip without mulch having fertigation level of 100 % of RDF and irrigation level of 100 % of ETc with BCR of 3.37
