IDIAP-R2 COMPARED WITH CREOLE BEAN VARIETIES IN PANAMA

A study was performed between 2007 and 2009 to compare IDIAP-R2 bean variety with Argentino and Pink Creole. The trials were established in the towns of Bonita, Salitral and Rio Sereno in 2007 and 2008, while in 2009 the assessments were made at Rio Sereno, Bonita, Caisán and Salitral, in the Districts of Renacimiento and Bugaba. It was used the approach of integrated knowledge management, where the technology to be used in evaluating the different plots was agreed with the various participating groups. The analysis of variance for data collected during the three years indicated highly significant differences for  year and year*variety (P<0,01). However for variety, the differences were significant (P=0,02), while for year*sample there was no significant difference (P=0,73). Measuring performance with 14% humidity showed that 2009 was the best year, with a yield of 1750 kg.ha-1, followed by the yields obtained in 2008 and 2009, with 1641 kg.ha-1 and 1531 kg.ha-1, respectively. During the three years of assessment, the best variety was IDIAP-R2 with 1750 kg.ha-1, followed by Argentina and Rosado Creole varieties with yields of 1601 kg.ha-1 and 1583 kg.ha-1, respectively.
