Brake Herbicide Now Labeled for Use in Peanuts

By Cotton Grower Staff|March 3, 2023

Welcome news for cotton and peanut growers: Brake herbicide has received EPA approval for use in peanuts.

Brake delivers broad-spectrum, long residual control of grass and broadleaf weeds, including herbicide resistant pigweed (Palmer amaranth). The herbicide’s unique mode of action (Group 12) makes Brake an effective tank-mix partner to other commonly used herbicides to help create a strong IPM package.

“Southern cotton growers are well aware of the effectiveness of Brake herbicide, and now this important weed control tool can help protect peanut crops as well,” says Sean Lynch, SePRO Ag’s Director.

“We have significant trial data in a variety of common peanut cultivars dating back to 2013,” Lynch adds. “This fits with our philosophy of bringing unique tried-and-true weed control products to growers that offer true value, and not a ‘me too’ solution. SePRO Ag is true to our motto of Upgrade Your Crop.”
