en.Wedoany.com Reported - True Organic has announced the launch of its new product, TRUE Choke-Out Herbicide, an EPA-registered, OMRI-listed non-selective herbicide designed for rapid control of annual and perennial weeds in both organic and conventional agriculture. The Monterey, California-based company stated that the product is now commercially available in select U.S. states, suitable for pre-plant burndown, post-harvest cleanup, and in-season weed control.

This non-selective contact herbicide contains plant-derived capric acid and caprylic acid, which rapidly dehydrate weed foliage. According to the company, under appropriate conditions, leaf drying can be observed within hours, with full weed control achieved in 2 to 3 days. As a non-systemic formulation, the herbicide remains on the plant surface, making it suitable for localized weed management in crops such as field crops, leafy greens, grapes, nuts, blueberries, and fruiting vegetables. The product can also be used as a harvest aid, crop desiccant, sprout inhibitor, and lettuce thinner.

True Organic revealed that the herbicide was evaluated through a 3-year field trial program. In trials conducted in California almond orchards, the product demonstrated superior suppression of winter weeds such as groundsel, wild oats, little mallow, prickly lettuce, London rocket, and fiddleneck compared to competitive organic herbicides 7 days after treatment. Blueberry trial results showed that repeated directed applications improved control of difficult-to-manage weeds while reducing the treated area, compared to broadcast applications. The herbicide is supplied as an emulsifiable concentrate, which can be diluted to various concentrations and applied using conventional ground spray equipment.

Jake Evans, owner and CEO of True Organic, stated that this product launch expands the company's scope beyond soil fertility, adding an organic-compliant weed management tool designed for rapid performance in commercial agriculture. Founded in 2003, True Organic is one of the largest organic fertilizer manufacturers on the U.S. West Coast, producing certified organic fertilizers and soil health products for commercial growers.
