The table environment does not support backgrounds but you can use the 
tabulate environment.

\starttext

\defineframedcontent[nicola][frame=off,background=color,backgroundcolor=yellow]

\setuptabulate[frame=nicola]

\starttabulate[|k{0.25}cm|]
\HL
\NC \bf R \NC\NR
\NC A     \NC\NR
\HL
\NC \bot  \NC\NR
\NC 1     \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext
