Abstract: The study "Performance of Sweet Corn Intercropped. with Three Selected Vegetable Crops," was conducted to determine the effects of intercropping okra, cowpea and mongo on the growth and yield of sweet corn and to know the best intercrop for sweet corn. The findings showed that there was no apparent difference in the growth of plants at the early stage but when the plants approached maturity their habit of growth and vigor became apparently distinct. Corn without inter-crop grew taller than those with intercrop. However, intercrop plots had less weed population. There were insignificant differences among the different treatments as to the number and weight of corn ears. The same results were obtained in the computed yield per hectare.
