The jewish bean or judillo (Vigna unguiculata [L] Walp), is a staple food on the plate of families in the rural environment of the Guerrero tropics. The study was developed to know the prevalence of the cultivation of V. unguiculata [L] Walp among farmers, the cultivation practices were described and were related to productive aspects of the plant. The four varieties of jewish beans identified were the guide brown, white, shrub brown and black. The prevalence of jewish bean cultivation was 62% and the most frequent variety was the shrub brown (P<0.0004). The activity is carried out by men and women of senile age, adults and young people, but mostly without schooling and at the highest primary level. Five practices (number of seeds per point, number of seeds in kilos, surface area in m2, distance between plants, distance between furrows) developed by producers were also found to be fundamentals for seed production. It is concluded that the Jewish bean is an important food in rural families in the Tierra Caliente region of Guerrero and the cultural practices developed by the producers were related to the production of crops regardless of the variety of V. unguiculata [L] Walp)
