From 2016 to 2018, in the semi-arid region of Brazil, the Miúda (MIU), Orelha de Elefante Mexicana (OEM) and IPA Sert?ania (IPA) clones were submitted to three regimes (40%, 80% and 120% ETc, where ETc is crop evapotranspiration) and to rainfed conditions (0% ETc). Cladode area index and the dry matter yield (DM) were used for calculating the morphophysiological indices. The cladode emission aided in delimiting the phenophases and, based on the DM accumulation, defined the ideal time for cutting the crop. The OEM clone excelled in terms of dry matter accumulation with a maximum value of 0.0441 Mg ha aDry matter intake aIrrigation aOpuntia stricta aPastures aIrrigação aMatéria Seca aPalma Forrageira aPastagem aNopalea aSemiárido aTaxas de crescimento1 aSILVA, T.
