Resumen en inglés
The cowpea bean (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is a legume of great importance in the world diet, being one of the main sources of protein, fibers, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins of vulnerable populations in tropical countries. In Colombia, in the department of Córdoba and the entire Colombian Caribbean; paradoxically it is among the orphan species of research and breeding programs; which generates a technological gap. The supply of minerals and proteins is insufficient to cover the nutritional requirements of the inhabitants in underdeveloped countries, generating hidden hunger, which has a special impact on the growth and development of infants and pregnant women, due to the fact that these populations lack resources for the intake of animal protein and supplementary minerals, so they must resort to plant sources as the species studied in this work, so it is necessary to conduct research aimed at the identification and evaluation of alternative food sources of nutrition for the region of Cereté, an area with nutritional problems in rural areas and low strata. The following research aims to know the agronomic and nutritional behavior of advanced lines of cowpea beans in the municipality of Cereté, as a new option of sowing and / or rotation with its agricultural tradition, the design of blocks was used completely at random with ten (10) treatments and four (4) repetitions with a population of 75 plants per experimental unit and 31,250 plants per hectare, from which the four central furrows will be harvested
