| description | The most important aspects of snap bean consumption, marketing, processing, and production are emphasized; topics for future research and development are highlighted. The role of snap beans in comparison with other vegetables is discussed. Vegetable demand grows as a consequence of the urbanizing process and income increase. The role of snap beans among vegetables depends on their price, quality, and availability. Price and availability are mostly determined by the marketing system as shown by high margins (100- 150 percent the price of the grower). Quality depends on the grower to a great extent; thus, genetic efforts to improve the quality of the product have more impact than work on increasing yield and reducing production costs. The area planted to snap beans is less than 3 percent that of beans; however, the value of snap bean production to the consumer is 27 percent that of beans. Snap beans are considerably important in China, Taiwan, and some Latin American countries. For snap bean development to be stimulated, it is necessary to establish a seed distribution and production network, to decrease commercialization costs, and to introduce the producer in the urban marketing system.

(CIAT) Se enfocan los aspectos mas importantes del consumo, mercadeo, procesamiento y produccion de habichuela y se destacan temas para investigacion y desarrollo futuros. Se discute el papel de la habichuela en comparacion con las hortalizas. La demanda de hortalizas crece como consecuencia del proceso de urbanizacion y del aumento de ingreso. El papel de la habichuela en el paquete de hortalizas depende de su precio, calidad y disponibilidad. El precio y la disponibilidad son determinados en su mayor parte por el sistema de mercadeo ya que los margenes son muy altos (100-150 por ciento del precio del agricultor). La calidad depende en gran parte del agricultor, por lo tanto, esfuerzos geneticos para mejorar la calidad del producto tienen mas impacto que el trabajo conducente a aumentar el rendimiento y reducir los costos de produccion. El area sembrada de habichuela es menor que el 3 por ciento de la de frijol, pero el valor de la produccion de habichuela a nivel del consumidor es el 27 por ciento del valor del frijol. La habichuela es considerablemente importante en China, Taiwan y en algunos paises de America Latina. Para fomentar su desarrollo es importante que se establezca una red de produccion y distribucion de semilla, que disminuyan los costos de comercializacion y que se integre al productor al sistema de mercadeo urbano.
