The Cereus jamacaru it is a cactaceae plant very used in food of cows, caprines and sheeplike in the semi-arid of Brazilian Northeastern. The pH, soluble solids, ashes, total solids, moisture, insoluble solids and the yield of Cereus jamacaru samples were determined. Were utilized the bunch of an only plant, this went separates and processes as three types of samples; pulp of the storaging pancreas of water (central stalk), pulp of vascular cylinder of end bunch and of half of bunch (part between the central stalk and the epicarp of the plant). The resultswere statiscally evaluated according to completely randomize design, from which were verified that had significant difference among the samples as to the pH, ash, totals solids, moisture and insoluble solids. Were observed that the soluble solids (ºBrix) the pulps of vascular cylinder of half and the end the bunchs had the sames, had been less to the of pulp of central stalk. The largest yield was of the pulps of the vascular cylinder, about 75%.
