Broad bean (Vicia faba L.) is a source of proteins and diet fiber, in addition to having compounds that prevent or reduce chronic diseases (cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and obesity). The study aimed to know and analyze the opinion of producers regarding the consumption and use of broad bean cultivars in Ciudad Serdán, Puebla, Mexico, to make evident the knowledge they have about the nutritional contribution provided by this legume. A descriptive study was performed through a semi-structured interview, carried out with 21 broad bean producers. It was found that the interview respondents knew six broad bean cultivars (blanca, morada, criolla amarilla, tarragona, parraleña and cochinera), although most sow criolla amarilla. Broad bean is used mainly for human consumption and the market. Most producers (71.43%) did not have knowledge of broad bean use to treat any disease, but some use it to prevent heartburn, heal wounds and relieve headaches. Most of them considered that broad beans provide nutrients, but ignore the benefits that this species contributes to health. The study highlights the importance of informing producers about the nutritional and functional value that this legume can provide the consumer.
