• Abstract:

  Bean cultivation is important in the country's agricultural economy, both because of the surface area allocated to it and because of the economic benefits it generates. The present work was established with the objective of evaluating bean varieties with acceptance characteristics in the national market and adapted to the water, climate and soil conditions of Baja California Sur. Therefore, 14 bean varieties were evaluated: Pinto Saltillo, Pinto Durango, Pinto Centauro, Pinto Salinas, Raramuri, P-14036, Max, Chasse, San Rafael, Bill-z, Az. Regional 33, Az. Regional 87, Az. Fig tree and Aluyori. A Randomized Block experimental design was used. A non-significant difference was found between treatments or varieties (p≥ 0.05). The highest yields were: 2,273, 2,215, 2,100, 2,018, 1,973 and 1,936 t ha-1, obtained with the varieties Max, Bill-z, San Rafael, Az Regional 87, Az Higuera and Pinto Saltillo, respectively. The Raramuri and P-14036 varieties had the lowest yield, obtaining 1,665 and 1,647 t ha-1, respectively. A significant difference was found between varieties (p≤0.05), according to the analysis of variance (ANOVA), so their behavior was different in specific weight. The varieties, Az Regional 87, Az Regional 33, and Pinto Salinas, had the highest specific weight, with 86.1, 81.4 and 81.1 kg hL-1 respectively. The productive comparison showed a potential gap of 50% in performance, the deviation in the b/c ratio was 41% and in productivity in relation to the water used, rates of 7.11 $ m-3 and 0.699 kg m-3 were achieved. of water with the Max variety; which represents a deviation of 163% with respect to the regional average.
