The present studies define the sugar-maize nitrogen requirements, delivered as pre-sowing fertilization or complementary foliar and soil nutrition. The usefulness of multiple fertilizers for sugar-maize top-dressing has also been defined. It has been shown that increase in pre-sowing nitrogen dose from 30 to 60 kg N/ha resulted in any significant yield increase in cobs neither with nor without covering leaves, nor did it increase the percentage of 1st class cobs and their length, and the number of grains in a cob. However either top dressing or watering with 18 kg N/ha in the form of urea solution or else with multiple fertilizers, such as Florovit, Basfoliar 6-12-6, Basfoliar 36 Extra and Florogama K, increased the yield of cobs with and without covering leaves, yield of 1st class cobs and the number of grains per cob
