description Information is given on the situation of beans in Latin America, in terms of producing regions, national consumption and exports in various countries, classes of beans grown, production structure, and constraints to production. Main limitations to bean production are diseases and insect pests, which significantly lower on-farm yield. Web blight, BGMV, and anthracnose are some of the main diseases affecting beans. The most important insect pests in Latin America include leafhoppers (Empoasca spp.), cutworms, the pod weevil (Apion godmani), the Mexican bean beetle (Epilachna varivestis), slugs (Vaginulus plebeius and Limax maximus), and storage insects (Acanthoscelides obtectus and Zabrotes subfasciatus). Soil related constraints, drought, the use of unsuitable cv., and socioeconomic factors are also classified as limiting bean production. Major disease problems per country and a climate classification of bean-producing regions are given in table form. (CIAT)

(CIAT) Se informa sobre la situacion del cultivo de frijol en America Latina, en terminos de regiones productoras, consumo nacional y exportacion de frijol en varios paises, clases de frijol cultivadas, estructura de la produccion y principales limitaciones a la produccion. Las principales limitaciones para la produccion de frijol son las enfermedades y los insectos plaga, que reducen significativamente el rendimiento del cultivo. Las principales enfermedades son anublo de halo, BGMV y antracnosis. Las plagas mas importantes en America Latina son los saltahojas (Empoasca spp.), los trozadores, el gorgojo de la vaina (Apion godmani), la conchinchuela del frijol (Epilachna varivestis), las babosas (Vaginulus plebeius y Limax maximus) y las plagas de granos almacenados (Acanthoscelides obtectus y Zabrotes subfasciatus). Tambien se clasifican como limitaciones a la produccion del frijol los factores edaficos, la sequia, el uso de cv. no adecuados y los factores socioeconomicos. En forma de tabla se incluye informacion sobre las principales enfermedades por pais y una clasificacion climatica de las regiones productoras de frijol.
