Studies related to the absorptions and nutrient partitioning in organs of irrigated beans are scarce and very important for the improvement of different fertilization models. This study aimed to evaluate the growth of irrigated common bean in winter, through biomass production and nutrients uptake to organs and shoots. We used a randomized block design with three replications and seven composed of time periods of plant collection (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 days after plant emergence) with separation in leaves, stem, flower+pod and grains. After determination of dry matter, the content of N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S absorbed by shoots and components of bean was estimated. Nonlinear sigmoid and gaussian models were fitted to characterize biomassa production and nutrient uptake during bean growth. The absorption of by bean decreasing in the following order, in kg ha-1: 138 K, 112 N, 66 Ca, 16 P, 11 S and 7 Mg, indicating the high absorption of K and N and demand of K replacement by top dressing. During the initial growth stage, leaves were responsible for 80% of macronutrients accumulation in shoots. In the final growth stage, grains exported 90, 75 and 65% of P, N and Mg absorbed, showing its high export rate.
