Hasunuma (蓮沼村 Hasunuma-mura?) was a village located in Sanbu District, Chiba Prefecture, Japan.

On March 27, 2006, Hasunuma, along with the towns of Matsuo, Narutō and Sanbu (all from Sanbu District), was merged to create the city of Sanmu, and thus no longer exists as an independent municipality.

As of April 1, 2004, (the last census data prior to the merger) the village had an estimated population of 4,846 and a population density of 499 persons per km². The total area was 9.72 km².
