1990
Gaona R, J. | Janssen, W.
Bean line PVA 476 was introduced in Antioquia in 1983; it was submitted to regional, demonstration, and verification trials up to 1988, yr when anthracnose susceptibility was observed. Therefore, its offical release as a var. was postponed and farmers from the coffee-growing region of Antioquia were given 2 t of seed to be planted and tested under their management conditions. Results are given of a farmers' survey to assess the performance of bean line PVA 476. Aspects studied were economically important activities, farm area, management and/or cultural practices for line PVA 476 (seed used at planting, cropping system, fertilizer application, no. of sprays and products used for disease and pest control), harvesting and produce destination (production, yield index, and yield/ha), advantages, disadvantages, and opinions of the material assessed; this line was also compared with traditional var. as to pod fill, grain size and color, marketing, consumption, pests, and diseases.
