description	In the last two decades, the cultivation of passion fruit has gained significant importance, as evidenced by the sustained increase in planting area, productivity growth, technological advancements, and the creation of numerous jobs. The trellising system, also known as the support system, is closely linked to the productivity and quality of the fruit, information that is not available for the Colombian Orinoquia. In the municipalities of Granada and Lejanias, yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa Deg.) orchards with different trellising systems were identified: simple trellis (ES), T or horizontal trellis (T), and total trellis or barbecue (ET). Based on the Colombian technical standard (NTC 1279), weekly records of production volume were taken once production began, considering the quality grades: first, second, and industrial. The variables analyzed were: planting distance, planting density (plants/ha), production cycle duration (months), productivity (kg ha-1), and fruit quality (%). It was found that the simple trellis system (ES) presented significant comparative advantages, such as higher productivity (30.5 t ha-1) with 73% first-quality fruit, followed by the T or horizontal trellis system with 22.8 t ha-1 and 55% first-quality fruit, and finally the total trellis system (ET) with 19 t ha-1 and 39.7% first-quality fruit. Regarding the duration of the crop cycle, no significant differences were found. It was confirmed that the simple trellis system offers the greatest and best competitive advantages, allowing for higher planting density, increased crop ventilation, reduced self-shading, higher photosynthetic efficiency, lower incidence and severity of pests and diseases, and facilitating practices such as mechanization, assisted pollination, pruning, higher efficiency of phytosanitary controls, and lower requirement for synthetic chemical inputs.

En las últimas dos décadas, el cultivo de maracuyá ha adquirido gran importancia, como lo demuestra el incremento sostenido del área de siembra, el aumento de la productividad, los avances tecnológicos y la generación de numerosos puestos de trabajo. El sistema de tutorado, también llamado de soporte, está estrechamente vinculado con la productividad y calidad de la fruta, información que no está disponible para la Orinoquía colombiana. En los municipios de Granada y Lejanías se identificaron huertos de maracuyá (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa Deg.) con diferentes sistemas de tutorado: espaldera simple (ES), espaldera en T o mantel (T), y espaldera total o barbacoa (ET). Con base en la norma técnica colombiana (NTC 1279), una vez se inició la producción, se tomaron registros semanales del volumen de producción, teniendo en cuenta las calidades: primera, segunda e industrial. Las variables analizadas fueron: distancia de siembra, densidad de siembra (plantas/ha), duración del ciclo de producción (meses), productividad (kg ha-1) y calidad del fruto (%). Se evidenció que el sistema de espaldera simple (ES) presentó importantes ventajas comparativas, como mayor productividad (30,5 t ha-1), con 73% de fruta de primera calidad, seguido del sistema T o mantel con 22,8 t ha-1, con 55% de fruta de primera calidad y, finalmente, el sistema de espaldera total (ET) con 19 t ha-1 y con 39,7% de fruta de primera calidad. En cuanto a la duración del ciclo del cultivo no se encontraron diferencias significativas. Se confirmó que el sistema de espadera simple ofrece las mayores y mejores ventajas competitivas, permitiendo mayor densidad de siembra, aumento en la ventilación del cultivo, menor autosombreamiento, mayor eficiencia fotosintética, menor incidencia y severidad de plagas y enfermedades, además de facilitar prácticas como mecanización, polinización asistida, poda, mayor eficiencia de los controles fitosanitarios y menor requerimiento de insumos de síntesis química.
