Cowpea is an important source of global food input in recent years, contributing to its excellent capacity as a source of nutrients composed of proteins, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomic characteristics of cowpea cultivars planted in the municipality of Esperança-PB. A randomized block experimental design was used, with 3 blocks and 4 subdivided plots, with 20 plants being evaluated for each plot, totaling 120 samples. 6 varieties of beans were used, and the following parameters were evaluated: length, width, thickness, weight, humidity, ash and cooking time. Among the cultivars studied, cultivar BRS Nova Era was the one that presented the best averages in the different parameters analyzed. Regarding cooking time, all variables were cooked in less than 26 minutes, but the Beef Ribs variable stands out with the shortest average time of more or less 18 minutes.
