This study investigates bean production systems, varietal diversity and adoption in Mbale District of Uganda, one of the few areas of the country where climbing beans are traditionally grown. Despite considerable genetic resources in beans in the study sites, individual farm households sow relatively few varieties as a result of biotic stresses and a narrow profile of marketed seed types. Rwandan climbing bean varieties introduced in the early 1990s were adopted by a modest number of surveyed farmers and have been successfully incorporated into the existing production system. The paper draws lessons about technology dissemination from collaboration between bean researchers and a nongovernmental organization.
