Abstract The effects of deficit irrigation on yield,fruit quality of cherry tomato were carried out by controlling irrigation intervals. Results showed that fruit weight and yield gradually decreased with the increasing of irrigation intervals but the effect of deficit irrigation on fruit number was little. The deficit irrigation increased soluble solid content,titratable acidity,soluble solid acid ratio and the content of VC. The deficit irrigation also increased water productivity.
