This research is conducted to model the limiting effects of irrigation deficit on maize growth which is a major challenge in dry areas. Field trials were conducted in completely randomized block design with three replications in Konya region (Turkey) during 2020 and 2021 growing seasons between May and August. Dry matter (DM) increase of maize was assessed on weekly intervals under four irrigation treatments, configured as %100, 75, 50 and 25 of the field capacity. Curve fitting with Logistic regression model demonstrated gradual decreases of maximum DM (from 496.331 to 254.119 g) and maximum growth rate (49,95 to 29,47 g/weeks) in average due to irrigation deficit when accurately modeling the DM accumulation with the varying R2 values between 0.979 and 0.995. Results of logistic regression curves and IWUE suggested that even 25% restriction of irrigation water caused an average of %25.5 decrease on DM when 50% and more restriction could be associated with water stress. Additionally, irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) was increased after the maximum acceleration point (MAP) which coincided with tasseling stage and inflection point (IP) where growth rate reaches to maximum, indicating that these periods were critical for maize in terms of preventing water deficiency.
