description Green beans are consumed worldwide due to their healthy nutritional properties. These are an important part of the modern “Grab-and-Go” diet, along with the traditional diet. Green beans are rich in protein, vitamins, fiber, folic acid and numerous minerals. In Colombia, the production of green beans is concentrated in the eastern mountain range, where there are currently low yields due to the phytosanitary problems associated with the traditional Blue Lake variety, added to the little implementation of production strategies such as plastic mulches. Thus, four varieties of green beans with plastic mulch were technically and economically evaluated. The experimental design used was complete randomized blocks with eight treatments, resulted of factors combination of the varieties (UNAPAL Milenio, Blue Lake Pole, Blue Lake National and Blue Lake S-7) and with and without plastic mulch, with four repetitions and an experimental unit of 25 plants. Planting distances were 0.25 m between plants and 1.2 m between rows for a population density of 33,333 plants/ha. The variables evaluated were: yield components, production per plant (g) and crop yield (t ha-1). The plastic mulch (black-black) had no differential effect on the agronomic behavior of the green bean varieties in the study area. The UNAPAL Milenio variety, with 9,134 kg ha-1, reached an agronomic behavior similar to the conventional Blue Lake variety with 9,717 kg ha-1. The Blue Lake variety presented the best economic behavior with a cost-benefit ratio of 1.15 and a rate of return of 14.85%.

Las habichuelas se consumen en todo el mundo debido a sus propiedades nutricionales saludables. Estas hacen parte importante de la dieta moderna "Grab-and-Go", junto con la dieta tradicional. Las habichuelas son ricas en proteínas, vitaminas, fibra, ácido fólico y numerosos minerales. En Colombia, la producción de habichuela se concentra en la cordillera Oriental donde actualmente se presentan bajos rendimientos por los problemas fitosanitarios asociados a la variedad tradicional Blue Lake, sumado a la poca implementación de estrategias de producción como lo son los acolchados plásticos. Así, se evaluó técnica y económicamente cuatro variedades de habichuela con acolchado plástico. El diseño experimental utilizado fue bloques completos al azar con ocho tratamientos, resultado de la combinación de los factores, variedad (UNAPAL Milenio, Blue Lake Pole, Blue Lake Nacional y Bue Lake S-7) y con y sin acolchado plástico, con cuatro repeticiones y una unidad experimental de 25 plantas. Las distancias de siembra fueron a 0,25 m entre plantas y 1,2 m entre surcos para una densidad de población de 33.333 plantas/ha. Las variables evaluadas fueron: componentes de rendimiento, producción por planta (g) y rendimiento del cultivo (t ha-1). El acolchado plástico (negro-negro) no tuvo efecto diferencial en el comportamiento agronómico de las variedades de habichuela en la zona de estudio. La variedad UNAPAL Milenio con 9.134 kg ha-1, alcanzó un comportamiento agronómico similar a la variedad convencional Blue Lake con 9.717 kg ha-1. La variedad Blue Lake presentó el mejor comportamiento económico con una relación beneficio-costo de 1,15 y una tasa de rentabilidad de 14,85%.
