IS1527 Peanut Weed Control Recommendations Peanut Weed Control Recommendations Weed Control is essential for successful production of high-yielding peanuts.
Weeds can affect peanut quality as well as yield.
Soil fertility, disease and insect management, crop rotation, and timely planting and harvest can also affect the entire weed management system. Proper use of herbicides aids in these weed management practices. Fortunately, we have viable control options for most of these weeds. If one or more of these problem weeds infests a field, develop a management plan before planting. Preplant and Preemergence Control Preplant incorporated and preemergence herbicide treatments can reduce weed interference early in the season, thereby getting the peanut crop off to a head start.
