description The objective of this study was to characterize the Zaragoza pink bean production system in the Colombian Caribbean from the technical and economic point of view. A survey was randomly applied to 32 farmers in producing areas. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, measurements of central tendency and contingency tables. The economic return calculations were made using a production cost pattern and economic profitability analysis techniques. The results showed that the average experience in cultivation is 12 years; the average age of the farmers is 48 years; the predominant type of tenure is property in 63% of the sample; and the mode of the area devoted to this crop is 0.5 ha. The use of family labor predominates in 65% of cases. 90% of the production is destined for the market, 8% is destined for self-consumption, and 2% is for seeds. Production costs correspond to 1,437 USD/ha, the average production is 1,700 kg ha-1, and the average sale price was 0.886 USD/kg, which generates a cost benefit ratio of 1.43% in three months of the productive cycle, from sowing to postharvest. This crop is profitable and stable inasmuch as its yields recover costs and generate profits for producers.

El objetivo de este trabajo fue caracterizar desde el punto de vista técnico y económico al sistema de producción de frijol rosado Zaragoza en el Caribe colombiano. Con datos de una encuesta aplicada a 32 agricultores según muestreo aleatorio en zonas productoras. Los datos se analizaron mediante estadística descriptiva, medidas de tendencia central y tablas de contingencia. Los cálculos del retorno económico se realizaron mediante un patrón de costos de producción y técnicas de análisis económico de rentabilidad. Los resultados demuestran que la experiencia promedio en el cultivo es de 12 años; el promedio de edad de los agricultores es de 48 años; el tipo de tenencia predominante es la propiedad en el 63 % de la muestra; la moda del área destinada a este cultivo es de 0,5 ha. Predomina el uso de mano de obra familiar en un 65% de los casos. El 90% de la producción se destina al mercado, 8 % se destina al autoconsumo y 2% para semilla. Los costos de producción corresponden a 1.437 USD/ha, la producción media es 1.700 kg ha-1, y el precio de venta promedio fue de 0,886 USD/kg, lo que genera una relación beneficio costo de 1,43% en tres meses del ciclo productivo desde la siembra hasta la postcosecha. Se concluye que este cultivo es rentable y estable por cuanto sus rendimientos permiten recuperar los costos generando ganacias para el productor.
