Passion fruit is threatened by human intervention, especially by the spread of monocultures and the introduction of intensively irrigated plants.
This is why, in 2011, it was loaded onto the Ark of Taste as a species at risk of extinction, and since then it has been promoted by the Slow Food network. Today it is used as an ingredient in jams, and the communities that protect it take part in regional food festivals.
