Crop history
Dwarf beans originated in Central America, Peru and Columbia. They have been cultivated for 7,000 years. Christopher Columbus brought them back to Europe from his second voyage to the ‘New World’ in 1493. The common bean is the main grain legume for direct human consumption, and it represents a rich source of protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
