Abstract In this work the contení of primary metabolites of four accessions of Chenopodium quinoa Willd (called as White, Yellow, Red and Black) of three districts of the province of Huamanga: Tambillo, Acocro and Chiara was investigated. The methodology according to AOAC was: proteins by Kjeldahl, carbohydrates by difference, fats by Soxhlet and fibers by acid-alkaline hydrolysis. The values obtained showed for carbohydrates (62.46 and 68.8%), for fats (5.03 and 6.27%) and for proteins (11.66 and 15.17%). Higher protein and fat content was obtained in the White accession, and in the Black accession the carbohydrate content was higher; the results obtained in the proximal analysis are within the parameters established by the FAO. The contribution lies in the knowledge of the quality of the quinoa, sowing in different altitudinal floors, finding out which of the accessions is more important economically. The certification of origin of the plants shows its genetic potential, which is transferred to another place; however, genetically it is different and therefore its nutritional quality does not equal its place of origin.
