Knowing the fact that sweet corn valorization is mainly done, in our country, as fresh product, for boiling purposes and less for manufacturing, productivity elements and the production of corn cobs for ach area unit, constitute, nowadays, priority amelioration tasks, considering that an ever significant part of sweet corn yield begins to be meant, in Romania too, to the manufacture as frozen beans or tins, this fact leading to an economic effectiveness of this crop, only for production levels found over certain limits. Research aimed at testing the behaviour of a sweet corn foreign and local assortment, hybrids which belong to different precocity categories, under the circumstances of practising two soil tilage systems (conventional system and minimum tillage system). After analysing and comparing the experimental results, one has established the superiority of the yields achieved by the minimum tillage system, system which had as result a better preservement of water in the soil, having direct impact on the crop achievement, each of the tested hybrids valorizing very well their genetical endowement concerning the productive capacity.
