| dc.description | Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis S.) is a plant native to tropical America. The most widely consumed variety is yellow, with its largest production destined for industry. Many of its properties have been studied in recent years, mainly those related to the type and content of fiber in the fruit. Studies indicate that the passion fruit peel, which represents 52% of the fruit, should not be considered as industrial waste, since its characteristics and properties can be used to obtain new by-products. Given the above, the objective of this bibliographic review was to analyze the operation of the production chain of Passiflora edulis to determine its influence on the economy of Ecuador. In Ecuador, approximately 70% of the fruit destined for the industry is used for the production of juices or concentrates to later be commercialized in the local and foreign markets. The entire agribusiness chain in this area generates a positive socio-economic impact in the areas of influence. However, in the country there is no incentive on the part of government institutions to create policies that establish and enforce the minimum price of support for the cultivation of passion fruit that allows the expansion of production areas. Given this, the sectors involved in the production chain should focus various studies to improve the productivity and commercialization of the fruit. In addition to seeking alternatives that allow added value to the final product, the actors in the passion fruit production and marketing chain will allow for better returns. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La maracuyá (Passiflora edulis S.) es una planta originaria de América tropical. La variedad más consumida es la amarilla, siendo su mayor producción destinada a la industria. Muchas de sus propiedades han sido estudiadas en los últimos años, principalmente, aquellas relacionadas con el tipo y contenido de fibra existente en el fruto. Estudios indican que la cascara de maracuyá, misma que representa el 52 % del fruto, no debe ser considerada como residuo industrial, una vez que sus características y propiedades pueden ser empleadas para la obtención de nuevos subproductos. Ante lo expuesto, el objetivo de esta revisión bibliográfica fue analizar el funcionamiento de la cadena productiva de la Passiflora edulis para determinar su influencia en la economía del Ecuador. En Ecuador, aproximadamente el 70% de la fruta destinada a la industria, es utilizada para la elaboración de jugos o concentrados para posteriormente comercializarlo en el mercado local y extranjero. Toda la cadena de agronegocio de este rubro genera un impacto socio-económico positivo en las áreas de influencia. Sin embargo, en el país no existe un incentivo por parte de instituciones gubernamentales para crear políticas que establezcan y hagan respetar el precio mínimo de sustento del cultivo de maracuyá que permita expandir las áreas de producción. Ante esto, los sectores involucrados en la cadena de producción deberían enfocar diversos estudios para mejorar la productividad y comercialización de la fruta. Además de buscar alternativas que permitan darle un valor agregado al producto final, por parte de los actores de la cadena de producción y comercialización de la maracuyá permitirá obtener mejores réditos. | es_ES |
